These illustrated presentations have become so popular that we are introducing a slight modification. As an added perk of your Center membership, members can register for free and enjoy priority seating. Paid Center visitors can also register for free. While non-members and walk-ins are always welcome, they must also register and pay a nominal fee of $10, which supports our speaker programming.

Registration is not yet open for this talk, but we will add the link here once it is available.

Future Local Lore talk:

• December 19

The talks in this series are gathered in this YouTube playlist.
