Celebrate Pennsylvania! A History in Story and Song





The Meyersdale Public Library is pleased to host Celebrate Pennsylvania! A History in Story and Song

Award-winning performer Paula Purnell presents songs written by and about the people

of Pennsylvania, in this family-friendly and interactive presentation featuring authentic instruments,

costumes and props. From the indigenous people of the Eastern Woodlands, to early English settlers, on to the workers of the Industrial Age, Purnell invites audiences to explore how and why Pennsylvanians have

been making music for thousands of years. Volunteers don costumes to become George Washington,

Queen Aliquippa and other important people from Pennsylvania's past.

Artifacts provide opportunities to explore and discuss the daily life, toils and triumphs of bygone eras.

October 5 @ 7 p.m.
