Step back in time with musician and storyteller Paula Purnell and fellow NewLanders performer Gerard Rohlf for an unforgettable journey through Western Pennsylvania’s history.
Experience the stories, songs, and traditions of the people who shaped our region—from Indigenous communities and early settlers to the hardworking men and women of the industrial era. Along the way, you’ll enjoy fascinating stories, live music, audience participation, and plenty of opportunities to sing along!
Whether you’re a history buff, a music lover, or simply looking for a fun evening, this interactive program is sure to entertain and inspire.
This free program is perfect for adults, families, and anyone who loves Pennsylvania history!
We hope you’ll join us as we celebrate 250 years of Pennsylvania through the power of music and storytelling!
