The 2011 Bagdad Museum Lecture Series continues with a look at the architecture of the historic homes of Bagdad. Michael Johnson President of the Bagdad Village Preservation Association, building contractor and designer of historic reproductions, takes an in-depth look at why historic homes of Bagdad were built as they were. Living in an historic home and having restored 8 historic Bagdad homes, Mr. Johnson will discuss economic, social, and environmental issues surrounding historic restorations and the availability of local materials which dictated historic techniques and methods of construction.
The presentation will be held Saturday, July 9th, 10:00 a.m. at the Bagdad Village Museum, 4512 Church Street, Bagdad, with refreshments following. There is no cost and all are welcome.
