YS Historical Society presents “Yellow Springs Heritage”

When: Sunday, January 29, 2012
Time: 2 p.m.
Where: Yellow Springs Senior Center, 227 Xenia Avenue

What does heritage mean to you?  Is it something tangible that you can touch?  Does our heritage make us who we are today? According to The Oxford English Dictionary (1997), one definition of heritage is, “valued objects and qualities such as cultural traditions, unspoiled countryside, and historic buildings that have been passed down from previous generations”.

What do the historical buildings of Yellow Springs tell us about the people that played a role in building the village that we know and love? On Sunday, January 29, 2012 at 2:00 p.m. in the Yellow Springs Senior Center Great Room, Robin Heise, a second year graduate student in the Public History program at Wright State University will present Yellow Springs Heritage. This program will give an overview on her recent research on some of the historical properties in the Village of Yellow Springs and provide tips on how to research your own historical property.

Admission is free and light refreshments will be served.
