About this Event

Before Cleveland became an industrial giant, it needed workers and Polish immigrants answered the call. Local author Tom Kaschalk explores where Polish Clevelanders spent most of their lives: on the factory floor, in the mills, and along the industrial corridors that powered the city’s rise. From the stone quarries of Berea to the blast furnaces of Newburgh, from the looms of the Cleveland Worsted Mills to the machine.

Free to attend, registration required.

Food & drink available.
