About the event

Bellman Presentation: History and Preservation in Lead/Deadwood
Join us for a thought-provoking Bellman Brown Bag as Terri Smith, organizer of Lead’s annual Heritage Weekend, explores the balance between preserving local history and embracing new development. This engaging talk will highlight the influential women who helped shape the Lead/Deadwood area and examine how their legacies inform ongoing preservation efforts. Discover the stories behind the buildings and the people who continue to fight for their place in our community’s future.

About the Bellman Brown Bag Series...

The Bellman Brown Bag series is a humanities program designed to explore ideas, history, literature, art, and culture. The Brown Bag program was developed by Dr. Stewart Bellman in the 1990s. Recognizing the Matthews Opera House as an ideal venue for the exploration of humanities topics, he engaged a line-up of speakers to present programs on a range of humanities topics each month.
Dr. Bellman was a professor of English at Black Hills State University, Spearfish, SD. His teaching career spanned thirty years. Bellman retired from BHSU and passed away in November 2002.
Programs are presented on the second Wednesday of each month, noon to 1pm. Designed to begin and end within the lunch hour, patrons are invited to bring their lunch, if desired, or simply enjoy an hour of learning and entertainment. This is an opportunity to gain insight into themes that touch our daily lives.
