Radnor's Road to 250: Celebrating an American Milestone
Radnor’s Road to 250: Celebrating an American Milestone
Just a half year to go now before we hit the big 2-5-0 as a country, but since we do call ourselves Philly people, our hearts and minds are already in the right place. Please join Radnor Memorial Library & Radnor Historical Society for 6 lectures (6/17-8/26) on some celebration history beginning in 1876, including some local art and cultural topics, too. The talks will be presented by those familiar and knowledgeable history lovers; Thomas H. Keels and Jim Segrave-Daly.
Please note the locations: Segrave-Daly at The Finley House and Keels at Radnor Memorial Library. There is no registration and all talks are free to the public.
