Museum holds History at Night Thursday

The Wayne County Historical Society will be holding a 'History at Night' on July 17 at 7 p.m.

Patricia Ann Black-Bigham will re-enact her segment, First Kiss, from Pat Gorthy's play Back to Life, which was presented at the Ohmann Theatre in Lyons - to rave reviews - in November.

'I remember watching her in the Ohmann Theatre and thinking, Why isn't this woman on Broadway? I was just riveted to my seat,' said Director of the Museum, Larry Ann Evans.

Evans asked Black-Bigham to speak about some aspect of the life of Migrant Farm workers, as a tie-in with the new exhibit at the Museum, Peppermint & More: Agriculture of Wayne County.

The History at Night series is free and open to the public. The Museum is located at 21 Butternut Street, Lyons.

For more information, call 946.4943. The museum website is www.waynehistory.org
