ABOUT ABOUT

Join Stenton and Adrienne Whaley, Director of Education and Community Engagement at the Museum of the American Revolution, on Zoom on February 22nd at 6:30pm as we construct Philadelphia through the eyes of Dinah, a formerly enslaved woman who lived and labored at Stenton. Stories about Revolutionary War era in our city abound, but rarely from the point of view of Philadelphia’s Black residents. During this virtual event, attendees will learn about the daily lives of free and enslaved populations, luminaries like the Forten family, and the origins of the community and culture found in our city today.
