Flossmoor Library cardholders, join us Tuesday, October 20 on Zoom for Preserving History with Geoffrey Baer! Tag along for a special conversation with Geoffrey Baer, beloved Chicago historian, storyteller, and host of numerous PBS programs exploring the architecture, history, and hidden stories of the city and surrounding region. Known for bringing local history to life, Baer has helped audiences connect more deeply with the places and communities around them.

Preserving History with Geoffrey Baer is made possible by ILA-ILP and its member libraries, and in part funded by a grant awarded by the Illinois State Library, a department of the Office of the Secretary of State, using funds provided by the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services, under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA).
