Join us for another FREE Historic Athens History Hour at the Lyndon House Arts Center, hosted by Denise Sunta. This month drop in for a special author’s event with Linnentown first descendant Hattie Thomas Whitehead for selective readings, discussion, and Q&A from her memoir Giving Voice to Linnentown.

This event series is part of Historic Athens' mission to be a proactive force in developing a community-wide understanding of the value of historic buildings, neighborhoods, and heritage. Our public programming aims to bring awareness to communities and connect generations with their heritage. Through the preservation of narratives involving neighborhoods, music, art, restaurants, politics, religion, and society, we will help to tell a fuller story of Athens.
