Join us as educator and historical interpreter Michele Gabrielson brings Goddard, printer and postmaster of Baltimore during the American Revolution, to life. Through the use of primary sources and storytelling, this informal drop-in program, complete with material culture items related to printing, explores Goddard’s multifaceted role as a printer who used the press to influence the Revolutionary cause.
