Big Red Lighthouse: From Navigational Aid to Cultural Icon

All are welcome as the Friends of the Library welcome Valerie van Heest, author and explorer.
Big Red was not always BIG, not always RED, and not always a LIGHTHOUSE. Maritime Historian, author and museum designer Valerie van Heest reveals the true story of Michigan’s most photographed lighthouse, the efforts to save it from demolition, and the reasons it is today a functioning navigational aid yet off limits to the public. Valerie’s latest book further ILLUMINATES this topic and the evolution of Great Lakes lighthouses.
Adult program.

Refreshments will be served.
Please register for this program, so we have enough seating: https://hudsonville.librarycalendar.com/event/friends-present-big-red-lighthouse-navigational-aid-cultural-icon-4757
