Living History Day in Brewton FEB 6 2025

From the Facebook page:

SNEAK PEEK: We hinted that something BIG was coming to the Coastal Alabama Community College's Brewton campus. We will be hosting the Coastal Alabama Living History Day on Thursday, February 6, 2025. We've invited over forty different groups from across our region and beyond representing historical sites and organizations. This event will be FREE and open to the public. We all learn in different ways, and our Living History Day will equip our visitors to experience history through all their senses. Several organizations will bring hands-on demonstrations. Others will be dressed in historical regalia. All of these organizations have volunteered their time to share with our students and community. Our Coastal Alabama Community College Libraries have been incredible to work with on this upcoming event. The Coastal Sound, jazz band and vocalists, will be performing throughout the day. Our art department will be hosting a live Raku pottery firing. Of course, Yotee the Coyote will be checking it all out, too! This is a very special event for the Brewton community and beyond. There is much more in store for this event that's too long to put into this post! Be sure to follow this page for more updates as we get closer to time. In the meantime, be sure to let folks know about the great things happening at Coastal Alabama Community College.
