History at Sunset

About History at Sunset

History at Sunset is an annual summer series that focuses on areas rarely visited, stories rarely told, or familiar sites seen through a different lens. Park historians lead each History at Sunset event, which may be an evening tour or special program in the park or the surrounding area. Programs are typically 90 minutes, are usually held outdoors, and may require some walking. Flashlights and insect repellent are recommended.

 

Many History at Sunset programs explore sites off the beaten path. Others tell new stories at familiar locations.
