Born in England and educated in Germany, Benjamin Latrobe arrived in the United States in 1796 and soon was providing the new republic with canals, water systems and, most famously, buildings. This lecture will examine his contributions to American society and the challenges that arose in his private and public life.

Doors open at 6 pm and the lecture begins at 6:30 pm. Pre-register: https://www.mdhs.org/civicrm/event/info?reset=1&id=491
