Giving Voice: Royall House Annual Benefit

Sunday, September 15, 2019 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

$25 – $50

Giving Voice, the annual benefit event for the Royall House & Slave Quarters, will feature a talk by renowned historian Tiya Miles, award-winning author of the book “The Dawn of Detroit: A Chronicle of Slavery and Freedom in the City of the Straits.” View the museum interiors, enjoy refreshments on the lawn, and hear remarks by Miles, a professor of history at Harvard University and author of five books of history and one novel. Miles was the co-winner of the prestigious 2018 Frederick Douglass Book Prize for “Dawn of Detroit.”

The museum’s annual benefit event supports the continued preservation and interpretation of the Royall House and Slave Quarters, site of the only freestanding slave quarters in New England and a testament to the complex history of slavery in America.
