“Join a costumed historical interpreter as she brings to life the real stories behind the birth of our nation and the extraordinary efforts that made independence possible.”

This free event is coming to the Yakima Harman Center at 101 North 65th Avenue on Tuesday, October 7th, at 6 pm and is perfect for high school students, adults, and really anyone who has a love of history.

And this is a fun and perfect opportunity.
