A community conversation with hosts State Senator Victor Ramirez, Delegate Jolene Ivey, Delegate Doyle Niemann, Delegate Michael Summers and Council Member Will Campos in the first in a series of four open forums on the history of our area and how to reveal, present and share it.

TOMORROW! Wednesday, February 22, 2012
Joe’s Movement Emporium,
3309 Bunker Hill Road, Mount Rainier, MD
Doors open at 6pm; program 6.30pm - 8pm

Prince George’s County is a diverse community with a rich culture and history, but how can we present it in a way that is meaningful for everyone?  At this event, special guests will present views of the county's past, including the War of 1812, and give perspectives from the history of African Americans and indigenous peoples. Then we invite you to join the conversation to explore how this relates to you and the significant events and places in your neighborhood.

Please RSVP (or show up!): info at marylandmilestones. org

The event is free and light refreshments will be served.
 
This project is presented by Prince George’s County Historical & Cultural Trust, in partnership with Prince George’s Heritage Inc., Anacostia Trails Heritage Area Inc., and the African American Heritage Preservation Group.
