Join us for this month’s History Hour as the University of Georgia Community Mapping Lab presents their work on Brooklyn Cemetery. Community GIS students are creating a more accurate dataset of those buried in the cemetery while mapping connections between these individuals and the broader Black Athens community, including where they lived and worked.
History Hour takes place at the Lyndon House Arts Center on the third Tuesday of each month. Complimentary lunch from Rashe’s Cuisine, including vegan options, will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. This event is free and open to the public.
