RAHS Salon: Rochester Neighborhoods & Streets

Based on the salons of the past, the Rochester-Avon Historical Society’s newest program is a Community Conversation titled, “Rochester Neighborhoods & Streets.” The program is on Thursday, May 7 at 7 p.m. at the Rochester Hills Museum at Van Hoosen Farm (1005 Van Hoosen Rd., Rochester Hills). Come and meet fellow local history enthusiasts and share your stories and interest in the history of the Rochester area.

It’s a night of conversation and sharing with the aim of building community and friendship. No lectures, no formal presentations. We’ll simply be sharing and listening to stories about our neighborhoods and the streets we grew up on or currently live on. We’ll begin with a brief look at area street names and who they are named for. So dig out those old photo albums, bring your photos and stories about the streets where you live! All are welcome. There’s limited seating for this event. Light snacks will be provided.
