AAGS Upcoming Program – Gravestone Art, Symbols, and More
March 4, 2021 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Join us at 7:00pm, EST, on Thursday, March 4, 2021 via Zoom for Tina Simmons speaking about Gravestone Art, Symbols, and More.
Your next visit to a cemetery will never be the same. Tina Simmons, a long-time member of our Anne Arundel Genealogical Society has been researching cemeteries for as long as she has been a member. Last year using grants from both the Arts Council of Anne Arundel County and the Trader Foundation of Maryland, she created a booklet and website featuring various aspects of cemetery art from around Anne Arundel County. In this talk, she will show additional examples from cemeteries she has visited both locally and from around the county. See examples of the different styles and examples of art (iconography) that can be found in cemeteries. Please join us for this unique visual journey.
This program is open to the public. We will email the Zoom link for the meeting to members the day before the meeting. If you are not a member of AAGS and would like to attend, please email us at programs@aagensoc.org, and we will email you the link for the program the day before the meeting.
