The Statue of Liberty
The Statue of Liberty was dedicated 125 years ago--October 28,
1886--after more than 20 years of planning, fund raising, and
construction.
I'll explain how she was built and what she symbolizes, and introduce
some of the people involved in her creation, including sculptor
Frederic Bartholdi, engineer Gustave Eiffel, architect Richard Morris
Hunt, and newspaper publisher Joseph Pulitzer. I conclude the
program with brief histories of Ellis Island and Liberty State Park.
The slide show includes my original photography of the Statue of
Liberty, Ellis Island, and New York Harbor views, plus vintage
images of historic people, places, and events.
Fee: $95 (Northern New Jersey / Southern New York)
Additional Travel Fees may apply.
