The Key West Art & Historical Society is excited to offer a series of fun historical lectures entitled ‘Happy Hour with the Historian’.
Historian: Cori Convertito Ph.D.
Topic: The Streets of Key West
We walk or ride our bikes down Simonton, Southard, Whitehead, and Fleming street without giving much thought to the streets' namesakes or the history belonging to each. This lecture will take attendees on a tour of the island's streets, learning a bit about the people the streets are named for, the streets' historical importance and notable buildings that were used by merchants, residents and businesses.
This event is sponsored in part by the Department of State, Division of Arts and Culture, the Florida Council on Arts and Culture and the State of Florida, with additional support provided by Comedy Key West.
