The final program in Historic Geneva’s Fall Program Series will be a lecture given by archivist Becky Chapin. She will explore the ways that Genevans have traveled, bringing pieces of the world back with them. Come learn about a 19th-century trip to Mongolia, living through an earthquake in Japan, traveling across the country for work, serving in the Philippine-American War, and more!

The program is being held in conjunction with the exhibit “I’ve Been Everywhere: Traveling Genevans” at the Geneva History Museum. Hear some of the many stories of Genevans going on adventures around the world that couldn’t fit in the exhibit.

There is a suggested donation of $5 to support our programming. For more information about the lecture, call the Historic Geneva office at 315-789-5151 or visit Historic Geneva’s website.
