Family vacations and memories often come flooding back to our minds this time of year. But vacations were not always a yearly thing. Join Bethel resident and historian David Jones at the Goodall Memorial Library at 6 pm for Holidays Past: A Brief History of Touring and Vacationing in New England.
Using illustrative maps courtesy of The Osher Map Library, Jones will talk about how development, transportation innovations, and urbanization contributed to the concept of family vacations. Looking at the rise in tourism and vacationing in the 19th and 20th centuries, Jones will talk about why people went on vacation, where they went and how they got there.
Light refreshments will be served.
Due to Covid 19, this event is cancelled. Please stay tuned for updates!
