Program Description

Event Details

Cemeteries are more than meet the eye. These historic sites contain art, stories, and landscapes that tell us a great deal about our past and present. Dr. Thomas Henthorn will share ways he and his students at the University of Michigan-Flint are working to make cemeteries across Michigan (including Oxford) active public spaces through preservation and how to interpret these historic gems in our communities.
