SUMMARY:The Last Raid\, Author Event & Book Signing with Tom Guercio and Diana Guercio Prentice
DESCRIPTION:Step back to the Bel Air of the 1930s and 1940s with authors Thomas Guercio and Diana Guercio Prentice. Learn about the days of the Bel Air Race Track\, the “Graw\,” boxing at the Armory\, poker at the Argonne\, and gambling at “The Hole.” These good old days included bookmaking\, moonshine\, and so much more. \nGuercio’s story is told through the reminiscences of George Van Bibber\, a friend of the authors’ father. Sam Guercio\, an Italian immigrant\, settled in Bel Air in 1932. Several of his family members were already residents and local business owners. If you are of a certain age\, you may remember visiting Sam’s Barbershop\, the family’s Shoe Repair shop on Burns Alley\, Guercio’s Grocery Store\, or perhaps Sam & Gorrell’s bookmaking parlor in Fallston. This promises to be a fascinating story. The event is free. Registration is encouraged. Books will be available for purchase.

SUMMARY:Living History Lunch & Show: Sarah Grimke Speaks
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this year’s Annual Meeting on Sunday\, September 21\, 2025\, at 2 pm. This very special program will feature a delicious lunch provided by one of Harford’s most noted caterers\, an opportunity to browse the ever-expanding museum collection\, and the chance to experience a unique living history performance by historical interpreter Christine Potts as she transports us to the world of Sarah Grimke\, noted abolitionist and suffragist. \nSarah Grimke Speaks! \nWhen 26-year-old Sarah Moore Grimke boarded a ship from Charleston to Philadelphia in 1819 to accompany her ailing father north\, she embarked on a history-making journey that took her from failed Southern belle to pioneering abolitionist and women’s rights activist. \nBorn into the Southern gentry\, Sarah’s abhorrence of slavery and devotion to God led her to convert to Quakerism and settle in Philadelphia\, where her charismatic and irrepressible younger sister Angelina Emily Grimke later joined her. After tumultuous years within the Society of Friends\, Sarah then followed Angelina north to New York\, where the two rose to public prominence and national notoriety by doing the largely unprecedented: daring to speak their minds. \nIn a time when no “respectable woman” would utter a word of public discourse\, the Grimke sisters became among the first women in America to conduct a lecture tour. What began as ladies’ gatherings in private parlors soon grew to packed audiences of men and women held spellbound by the sisters’ calls for immediate abolition of the enslaved and then\, perhaps even more controversially\, equal rights for women. \nIn this 50-minute program\, Chris Potts tells Sarah’s story in Sarah’s voice\, immersing the listener in a compelling vocal performance. With a background in teaching\, writing\, and performative storytelling\, Chris first developed the idea to research the life and interpret the story of Sarah Grimke after leading a discussion on Sue Monk Kidd’s The Invention of Wings in 2019 at the Historical Society of Harford County\, where she now serves as Executive Director. \nPurchase Tickets
