Join us Tuesday, January 21 at noon for our first History Hour of 2025! This month's programming will dive into The Morton Theatre, one of the first, and the oldest, black-owned vaudeville theaters in the United States. Built in 1910 by Pink Morton, this venue has historically been host to legendary acts like Ma Rainey, Duke Ellington, and Louis Armstrong.
Speakers include Kimberly Davis and Robert E. Harrison from the Morton Theatre Corporation, as well as the Morton Theatre’s managing director Lynn Green.
Each month's History Hour is at the Lyndon House Arts Center, every 3rd Tuesday of the month. Complimentary lunch from Rashe's Cuisine is provided on a first come, first serve basis with vegan options available. This event is free and open to the public.
