New GVL Chautauqua: Major-General Greene – NEGA History Center

August 8, 2023 @ 7:00 pm

Meet Major-General Nathanael Greene during New Gainesville Chautauqua. Major-General Greene will be portrayed by professional living history interpreter Dan McMichael on Tuesday, August 8th at 7 PM at the Northeast Georgia History Center.

Nathanael Greene was a prominent military figure during the American Revolution where he rose from private to major-general within the Continental Army. He commanded the Southern Department and led effective strategies that led to the British withdrawal from the Carolinas, which profoundly impacted the course of the war. After the war, Greene chose Georgia as his new home living in Savannah, Georgia at Mulberry Grove Plantation.

Our program will begin with a special Baroque-style dance demonstration by Kat Nagar of Atlanta Historic Dance. Audience members will also have a chance to ask Major-General Greene questions!

This program is free to Members of the Northeast Georgia History Center, $10 for non-Members, and $8 for students. Become a Member today to receive free/discounted admission to events throughout the year! www.negahc.org/member.
