"Classy Broads and Daring Dames: The Ladies Of North Laurel Hill"
Laurel Hill Cemetery marks Women’s History Month with a program honoring some of their most accomplished broads and dames.
What do a Revolutionary War lady patriot, the first burial at Laurel Hill, a great-granddaughter of Benjamin Franklin, and a famous publisher and anti-suffragette have in common? The easy answer is that they are all buried in North Laurel Hill, the Cemetery’s oldest section. Join us as we unearth their stories, along with those of other women whose contributions to science and other disciplines have made life as we know it possible. This inspirational walking tour will conclude with a toast to classy broads and daring dames of past…and present.
Cost: $12/adults, $10/students and seniors. Tickets can be purchased at the door, or in advance by phone (215) 228-8200 or online.
