It examines why we have cemeteries and gravestones, why they look like they do and how styles and art have evolved over almost 400 years. Prior to the program date, The Girls will hit the road and go through Franklin’s cemeteries, taking pictures to discuss during the presentation. Q&A is welcome at the end of the show!
