Event Navigation
Join us on the lovely evening grounds of Graeme Park (indoors in cooler/inclement weather) for a few drinks, munchies, and 30-40 minute talk on a topic of historical interest. $5/cover charge; cash bar and food. No cover charge for members. Bar opens at 6 pm, lecture starts at 7 pm.
Speaker Heather Greenleaf, author of An Imperfection in the Kitchen Floor, will talk about everyday life in Willow Grove from 1910-1925, including the history of Willow Grove Park and the development and architecture of the neighborhoods. She’ll also cover locals who served in WWI and the terrible train wreck in Bryn Athyn that changed the railroad laws forever.
