Kathryn Willis and John Hennessy preview the Cultural Quilt lecture series, a free program that explores Fredericksburg’s sister cities and the role different cultures have played in shaping both the community and the nation. Held at the downtown library, the lectures examine each country’s influence on the American story through a local lens.
The series opens February 18 with John Hennessy’s talk at 6:30, Beyond the Ocean Gateway: Immigrants and Immigration in Fredericksburg, tracing how generations of immigrants helped define the city’s character and growth.
