Step through the doors of Manchester Community Library and travel back in time to celebrate Vermont’s 250th on Thursday, February 5 from 12 PM to 6 PM. Enjoy a LiveHistory event where audience members will follow their own chosen path to complete missions, tasks, and clues, and speak with the characters. Actors portraying Judge Mark T. Skinner and other local Revolutionary-era figures will spend the day at the Manchester Community Library, greeting and chatting with patrons and students as they wind through the building, immersing themselves in social history. This is an open event that allows participants to arrive in 15-minute intervals and wander the halls of history speaking to the Northshire’s most influential Revolutionary characters while participating in a scavenger hunt for history.
