Living History: Tales From the American Revolution In-Person
Step back into the stirring days of the American Revolution as living historians bring three remarkable patriots to life. Join us to hear stories of midnight rides and founding ideals presented by Ken Giorlando as Paul Revere, Larissa Fleishman as Sybil Ludington, and Bob Stark as Benjamin Franklin. 
Registration begins Thursday, June 4, at 9 a.m. online, by phone, or in person at the Information Desk. Attendees may enter the building through the front doors on Grand River or the Clinton Street doors in the rear. The library will be closed when the program ends, so everyone must exit through the Clinton Street doors.
This event is generously sponsored by the Friends of the Howell Carnegie District Library.
This event celebrates America's 250th anniversary at the Howell Carnegie Library. A gift from the Carnegie Corporation of New York partially funds it. Part of the "Carnegie Libraries 250" initiative, these funds honor the 250th anniversary of the United States and libraries' role as "cradles of democracy." Learn more about the history of America's founding on the library's website.
