"This Place Matters"
Ottumwa has many buildings with histories unique to them. In Ottumwa's downtown area, many have had their significance acknowledged through the National Register of Historic Places. Architectural historian Molly Naumann will share some of these histories and which ones are on the registry when she returns to the Reminisce Society to present her program ?This Place Matters? at the Ottumwa Public Library on Tuesday, February 24th, at 10:00 a.m.
As an architectural historian, Naumann travels the state, assisting communities and individuals with evaluation of historic structures and nominations to the National Historic Register, as well as educating adults and children alike about the remarkable buildings in their neighborhoods.
Reminisce programs are free and open to the public, and are especially for those interested in Iowa and local history. For further information, please contact the Sonja Ferrell at the Ottumwa Public Library, 641-682-7563, extension 202.
