Can You Tell Fact from Fiction? (October 25, 2011)
Discovering Philadelphia’s Real Hidden Histories
Tuesday, October 25th, 4:30–6:30
In this FUN and interactive game-show-style workshop, attendees become contestants and work together to decide which historical stories they hear are true and which are fiction. Can YOU tell the difference? Remember, truth can often be stranger than fiction...
