Manchester City Library invites you to join us in a walking tour presented by local historian Stan Garrity on Friday July 26th at 10 AM. The walk will begin in the Main Library's rotunda and will follow Stan's guided tour before returning to Library. Come learn about the woman who turned her house into a stop on the Underground Railroad, the first Black woman to graduate from Manchester High School, and much more!

Stan has spent countless hours researching the forgotten history of Manchester's Black residents and works closely with the Manchester Historic Association. He gives regular walking tours through Valley Cemetery in the fall and has worked with City Hall to get plaques commemorating notable members of Manchester's Black community.

Make sure to wear comfortable shoes, sun screen, and drink plenty of water.
