Shining A Light - Greenwich Historical Society Uncovering Lost Voices in Local History

Our April 2022 show features Debra Mecky, Executive Director of the Greenwich History Society (GHS) speaking on the Society’s dedication to uncover, elevate and amplify some of the lost or under-represented voices in local history. The program focuses on the Society's second annual series of lectures, “Shining a Light,” that gives the stage to speakers who are dedicated to interpreting, restoring and preserving these histories. Dennis Culliton, founder of The Witness Stones Project, describes the Project and its impact on schoolchildren. Heather Lodge, Manager of Youth & Family Programs at GHS, and Stephanie Barnett, Public Programs Manager, fill out the story with details about the Witness Stones project and ceremony in Greenwich and more information on Bridgeport’s Little Liberia, the subject of Maisa Tisdale’s presentation.
