Come join us on Sunday, March 8, 2020, for LHI Education Committee's Sunday Salon Series.  We are delighted that at this salon, Kenneth D. Frank, M.D., husband of Leyv Ha-Ir member Sue Frank, will present Center City Before Moses. 

In 1931 workers digging a subway tunnel at 8th and Locust Streets discovered subterranean tree stumps that were more than 36,000 years old. The stumps were buried 38 feet underground, and the wood was well preserved. The trees were bald cypress, a southern species whose native range does not extend this far north. How scientists cracked the mystery of this discovery is an intriguing tale. The story offers clues to Center City’s prehistoric past and potential future.

It promises to be a very enlightening session.  

Very light noshes will be served.
