SUMMARY:Lunch and Learn – Mary Barlow: Hartford’s World War II Heroine at Connecticut Museum of Culture and History
DESCRIPTION:The Connecticut Museum of Culture and History will host a virtual Lunch and Learn presentation exploring the life and legacy of Mary Jewel Barlow on June 9 from 12 pm to 1 pm.
