Free Adult Program: History of Nicodemus, Kansas
Valley Center Public Library Presents: History of Nicodemus – Thursday July 13 at 1pm
In the 1870s, former southern slaves embraced the pioneering spirit and headed west to create a new town. Nicodemus, Kansas, is the oldest and only remaining town west of the Mississippi River that was founded by African Americans following the Civil War. Nicodemus was designated a National Historic Site in 1996, preserving her history for future generations.
Our presentation speaker, Angela Bates, is one of the few remaining decedents of the town’s founders. Come learn more during this free program about the fascinating history of Nicodemus, Kansas, on Thursday July 13 at 1pm.
