GMALL Presents – Greetings from Manchester: A Pictorial History II

November 6 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm
GMALL Presents – Greetings from Manchester: A Pictorial History II

Thursday, November 6 from 5:30 pm to 7:00 pm at The Southern Vermont Arts Center, Yester House

Green Mountain Academy for Lifelong Learning (GMALL) is excited to partner with the Manchester Historical Society to present this talk about the history of postcards of Manchester, VT. Postcards, once highly regulated by the government and utilitarian in their purpose, came into their heyday in the early 20th century once photographs and artwork were used. Manchester, being a destination resort area, used postcards to promote the area’s beauty and amenities, and thousands were produced and sold. Join MHS curator Shawn Harrington for another look at a collection of his favorite postcards, some with very rare imagery of the Village, Depot, Center, the mountain towns, and more. This program is free because of the generous support of The Keelan Family Foundation and an anonymous sponsor, however, advance registrations are appreciated. For more information or to register, please call 802-867-0111 or visit our website at greenmtnacademy.org.
