You are invited you to join the Power and Place Collaborative for Building Bridges: Belonging in Burlington, a screening of the new Alamance County Stories captured this year and it will take place on Saturday, December 3 from 10 am -12 pm in Moseley’s McKinnon Hall at Elon University.
This screening will feature oral history digital stories co-created with the African American Cultural Arts & History Museum, the Burlington Masjid, Elon University, and the Mayco Bigelow Community Center.
