“Civil War Trails: Not Just for History Buffs”
with Drew Gruber
Tuesday, March 16 @ 2:00 p.m.
Civil War Trails aren’t just for history buffs! Join Drew Gruber, Executive Director of Civil War Trails, to hear about this multi-state program that connects visitors to often-unheard stories about the Civil War. As a community-driven resource this program reaches audiences of all ages, putting them into the shoes of the generals, soldiers, civilians, and enslaved people that experienced the deadliest war in U.S. history. With over 1,350 sites across six states and signage that is consistently being updated to tell new and diverse stories, thought-provoking experiences abound when you explore this open air museum.
Visit https://montgomeryhistory.org/mhconnected/watch/ for the link to register for the Zoom session. Because of the increasing popularity of our History Conversations, we’ve updated our Zoom platform so it now accommodates 500 people! If the Zoom session reaches capacity, you can watch on Facebook where it’ll be streamed live. Pre-registration is still recommended, so that you get a reminder prior to the event.
If you have further questions about accessing the conversation via Zoom, please contact Matt Gagle, Director of Programs, at MGagle@MontgomeryHistory.org.
