Liberty: The Story of America's Favorite Statue

Jill Gross, Neighbor

The Statue of Liberty took 20 years of planning, fund raising, and construction before its dedication in 1886. On Thursday, July 26 at 7 p.m., join author and photographer Kevin Woyce who will conduct a multi-media lecture rich in images and narrative that explain the history of the statue: what she symbolizes and who were the sculptors, engineers, and architects involved in her creation. The program concludes with brief histories of Ellis Island and Liberty State Park. Online registration: www.taplib.org. Info: 359-3877.
