Printer, politician, scientist, and philanthropist, Benjamin Franklin was above all a master of creating self-images that served many situations—from the pomp of the French court to the muddy streets of Philadelphia.
Join us as we consider the ways in which Franklin turned himself into one of America’s most enduring cultural myths. Reception with light refreshments begins at 6:00 pm and the lecture will begin at 6:30 pm. Please note that no alcohol is served at this event. Registration is requested as seating is limited.
