Historic New Harmony will be hosting a new free, monthly social gathering for local history lovers, Talking History, at Black Lodge Coffee Roasters in New Harmony, Indiana, on Saturday, February 24, 2024, at 10:00 a.m. Coffee, tea, and snacks will be available for sale that day in the coffee shop.
The idea behind Talking History is to provide opportunities for people to meet to share and discuss historic topics of interest related to the town of New Harmony. Though each informal meeting will be guided by a pre-announced theme, participants are free to go “off script” and take the conversation in different directions. Historic New Harmony staff plan to share a variety of selected objects and other materials from the HNH collections to spark discussions. These items will relate to the monthly theme. February’s theme is Family.
If you have any photos or objects that you would like to share at the February History Talk, we encourage you to bring them with you!
