Join another of RHS’ community-sourced, capacity-crowd programs, presented by Sarah Clayton and Jennifer Law Young. Returning to the RHS stage after their celebrated 2015 Program on “The Haunts and Hollows of House Mountain,” this award-winning journalistic team will pair together to share centuries of Kerrs Creek stories through oral histories, still photography, film, maps, and creative non-fiction. Their multimedia presentations — followed by the welcome invitation for community contributions, chronicles, and questions — will be held in the heart of Kerrs Creek at New Monmouth Presbyterian Church (est. 1746), 2348 W. Midland Trail. Please consider carpooling, to maximize parking at the historic church and cemetery. Refreshments and artifact displays to follow. See RHS Facebook or the feature archived in our October Newsletter
