Born in Chittenango in 1856, Baum and his family roamed the streets of this historic village. A canal landing site along the Erie Canal, the Chittenango Landing was a three-bay dock for canal boats to be repaired. The museum is housed in a building from the Baum era that used to be the apothecary shop in town. The tour doesn’t end along the yellow brick road in Chittenango, we will also visit some Baum related sites in Syracuse as well. The building Baum’s Dry Goods store was in, The place where he met Maud Gage, the famous Rose Lawn estate area, and the Matilda Joslyn Gage house where L. Frank Baum was married.

excited for this Oz event
Marc does a fantastic job!
what times do the different events start?
This particular tour is right up front Friday afternoon. You can see it anytime after 1 pm (Eastern).
The content is still set to “protected” until the weekend begins. I’ve asked our developer to add times to the tabs on the program schedule to help.
Afternoon content opens at 1pm, Evenings at 5pm, and Mornings at 9 am — those times are Eastern Daylight.
Live Zoom times are Friday at 9 pm, Saturday at 7 pm, and Sunday at 1 pm. Again, those are Eastern.
This is very exciting! Thank you for hosting this online. 🙂
Fun fact all- I added the wrong picture for the Peekskill military academy. LOL. That is clearly not a picture of the 1870’s at the facility…or Doc Brown has been using Chevrolets to go back to the future! Fun to watch, still.
When will the content be available?
How do I watch it? I’m here on this page and I don’t see any buttons to push.
Just click the universal “play” icon — a triangle pointing right — in the middle of the video you want see.
Thank you for this interesting panel.
I’m totally lost. How can I access these event topics? Is it a live stream?
Michael, content will be release by day and time. So far, the Friday afternoon content has been launched. You can access the respective days/time from the menu bar.
Here’s a quick link to the Friday afternoon content:

I’m also very confused about this.
What are you having trouble with, Adeline? Select Friday afternoon at the top of the page and the afternoon programs open. You can click on them from the list on the left, or scroll down. When you get to a video you want to play, just select the little “play” arrow in the middle of the image. For the digital Puzzles you use your cursor to pick up pieces and put them in place. The playlist of Music takes you to Youtube but you can listen to that in a second window as background music if you’d like. The contests are at the bottom of the page if you have a costume photo or pets you want to enter.
First of all, great job! I am impressed by the amount of locations and working in still photos.
Second, I want your t-shirt! I’m a Leo, so I deserve a lion with a crown. There is a similar one at the Wamego Museum, but I was hoping you had them in stock at the All Things Oz gift shop.
Third, I think the building in Mattydale was a bowling alley, but that doesn’t really matter.
Hi Sue- It was a roller rink “Action Skate” for years. it may have also been a bowling alley at one point in time! We miss you! Talk to you soon!
I used to skate at that rink as a kid back in the early 1970’s. At the time I had no idea about Roselawn.
Quite enjoyable and VERY informative!
Kudos to your videographer! I loved the photos from the West Onondaga house. I hope someone buys it, even if it isn’t the right house. It has such great details.
Great tour Marc! A lot of work!
I really liked the Tour
