Abandoned Eastern Pennsylvania:

Remnants of History

Date:January 23
Time:7:00 pm – 8:00 pm

Have you ever peeked through a shutter and wondered about the mysteries hidden within an abandoned property?  Journey through some of Eastern Pennsylvania’s ruins and discover an evocative new way to look at history and long-neglected sites – prisons, asylums, theaters, mills, cemeteries and more.  Discover a surreal world that development has left behind, where industry collapsed, or culture changed, and decay took over.

About the Speaker: Cindy Vasko was born in Allentown, Pennsylvania, and resides in Arlington, Virginia, near Washington, D.C. For fifteen years, Cindy was the publications manager for a large construction law firm in Northern Virginia, and concurrently, for four years interviewed musicians, wrote articles, and photographed concerts for a music magazine.
