Reppin' OWB in PA


On February 23, 2017, we were fortunate to interact with the wonderful residents of the Kendal retirement community. Veronica was part of a three person panel who presented about Lincoln University's connection to civil rights. She spoke about her experience with the Treasure to Treasure project and the impact of her alumni, most notably Thurgood Marshall. We were excited that the residents were eager to learn more about Old West Baltimore, especially sine they had never heard of it. Now a new segment of the population is excited about the historical significance of historic Old West Baltimore.
