Local Voices Family Day

Three Milton historic sites will open their doors to engage the public in an immersive exploration of local history titled “Local Voices.” Each site will feature a Story Walk as well as activities for the whole family. This collaborative project will highlight individuals who not only played a significant role in shaping the history of each particular site, but also the larger Milton community. The Milton Public Library will have Reading Dogs, trained therapy dogs who love to listen to young readers, at each of the historic sites from 2:00 p.m.-3:00 p.m. Visit each location's website for more details on activities for the day.
