A small Amelia Earhart / @untappedny walking tour update: Saturday is full (it is capped at 20), and Sunday has 15 so far- only 5 spots left. So book Sunday if you want to go!
This is my only Amelia in New York walking tour, revived because the November one got rained out. We’ll roam through her New York, and the weather appears to be behaving beautifully for both days!
I’m leading it with @jcharlesrivers , head of Untapped Experiences and a licensed NYC guide. I go on a lot of walking tours, and I think he is one of the best guides in the city.
Doing this one for fun. Come walk with us.
thank you again to my Untapped friends @nicolesaraniero@guspasquet and @guspasquet and founder @michelleyoungwriter for inviting me to do this! By Monday, I’ll have a tour guide for a day off my bucket list. /amelia-earharts-new-york-laurie-gwen-shapiro/
This past weekend, @UntappedNY ’s Historic Hoboken Walking Tour took us through some of the city’s most iconic spots, uncovering the moments, people, and places that shaped our Mile Square City! 💛🏡
Led by Robert Foster of the @hobokenmuseum and our very own Mark Stehli, participants were encouraged to see familiar streets in a new way!
There’s always something new to discover #HereInHoboken! 👣

We're teaming up with @untappedny ! Join us for an illustrated lecture inspired by "A Haunted History of Invisible Women," a groundbreaking exploration of the forgotten women who linger in the shadows of our cities—and our history. This special online event spotlights the book’s New York City–based ghost stories, where restless spirits illuminate the lives of women erased, overlooked, or deliberately written out of the narrative.
Blending folklore, feminist history, and urban exploration, this illustrated talk uncovers how New York City’s ghost stories open unexpected doors into the city’s layered past. Far more than tales of haunted houses, these narratives trace the ambitions, struggles, injustices, and enduring legacies that shaped the streets we walk today.
Talk presented by @andreajanes.writer and @leannareneehieber , Boroughs of the Dead tour guides and co-authors of "A Haunted History of Invisible Women." Register at untappedcities.com
🌸 Forget the frigid temps and celebrate the start of spring at @artechouse , an innovative digital art space inside the 100-year-old boiler room below @chelseamarketny !
