Our monthly presentation at Maple Hall will feature guest speaker Camren Lewin, University of Tennessee graduate student, sharing what she has learned in her studies of Urban Renewal and its complicated era. (Much of the acreage she’ll be talking about is visible out the windows of the restaurant.)
Free program. Food and drinks available for purchase.
