Brown Bag Lunch Program:

Brown Bag Lunch Program:"The Poor Man's Trip to Spain":St Augustine preservation with Matt Armstrong

Presented by Friends of the Main Library St. Augustine at Unknown

May is Historic Preservation Month! Join Friends and learn how downtown St. Augustine was transformed in the 1960s through preservation and reconstruction efforts, driven by the 400th anniversary celebration in 1965. Through research and a variety of private and public partnerships we ended up with the St. Augustine that we know and love today.

Our special guest, Matt Armstrong, is the Collections Coordinator at the University of Florida Historic St. Augustine Governor’s House Library. Matt has lived in St. Augustine since 2004, is a Flagler College and UF alum, and also plays in the local folk trio Aslyn and the Naysayers.

The Wednesday Brown Bag Lunch Program is free and open to the public. Doors open at 11:00 a.m. and the program will begin at 11:30. Patrons are welcome to bring their lunch. Light refreshments will be provided by Friends of the Main Library St. Augustine. For additional information, please call the Main Library at the number listed.
