The Boyertown Area Historical Society was open from 4-7 p.m. on Sunday, Jan 13 for people to see their display on the Rhoads Opera House Fire.
The exhibit is there all month and open on Sundays from 1 to 4 p.m.
I've been in the society building before for programs and exhibits, and they usually do a nice presentation.
On this Sunday they had Opera House experts there to answer questions and talk to people visiting.
This is artist Julie Longacre (left) holding a print she drew of the Rhoads building. Next to her is Betty Burdan, local historian who helped on the Opera House committee.

The photos and articles really speak for themselves.
