Over 4 weeks beginning on February 9, we are showing presentations on the following topics:

Thursday, Feb. 9 – George Bronner, Alvin’s early 20^th-century photographer

Thursday, Feb. 16 – Alvin and the 1900 Hurricane

These will be shown at the museum from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.  We hope you will come and learn more about Alvin’s history.

Sincerely,
