[Durham INC] Architectural Tombstone Tour: Maplewood Cemetery This weekend! 10/26 & 10/27

[April Johnson]

Good evening Neighbors,

I hope you are enjoying the autumn and harvest season festivities!

Join us for our Historic Maplewood Cemetery Tour where Durham's early
history lingers. This cemetery is a museum of architecture, culture, and
art. It is a garden of memories and an eternal city of stone. At every
turn, there are rich stories of the triumphal rise and slow decline of
great fortunes. Inspiring stories of philanthropy, industry, justice, and
progress. Stories of tender love and bitter prejudice. Stories of irony,
comedy, and tragedy. Tour-goers will learn about the social history of
death as we point out the fine points of tombstone and monument making and
symbols in stone of faith, grief, and memory. It's all here at the historic
Maplewood Cemetery.

Our tour is divided into two parts - one on the east side of Kent Street
and the other on the west. The tours operate in a continuous loop where you
can join either part where you find it and follow it around. Your ticket is
good for both Saturday and Sunday!
