Upcoming Events

Saturday, April 26, 2025 | 2 - 3 pm

Learn how a grassroots effort to save a historic building led to the creation of Manatee Village Historical Park and the preservation of six other important structures. These buildings serve as evidence of how early settlers lived, worked, educated their children, worshiped, and built a functioning society. Join us for a conversation about the significance of historic preservation and how these structures keep Florida’s pioneer history alive.
