Join the Ligonier Valley Historical Society in the historic Common Room of the Compass Inn Museum for our much anticipated ‘Fireside Chat’ series. This year, we are Echoing 250 Years of history throughout the region with speakers from the Lincoln Highway Experience, McCarl Coverlet Gallery, West Overton Village, and the Ligonier Valley Historical Society.

On the Ryes: Whiskey History in Western Pennsylvania

On March 26, visit with Aaron Hollis and Patrick Bochy, Co-Executive Directors of West Overton Village Museum, as they share their extensive knowledge of 19th-century Pennsylvania Whiskey production. Aaron and Patrick will delve into the art of the craft, memorabilia, and history of whiskey in this area. Enjoy a whiskey tasting as part of the conversation (21+).

Admission is $5. Due to limited space, the "Chats" are recommended for adults only.

Tickets are available for purchase on Eventbrite until the day before the event. As these have been historically popular events, we cannot guarantee walk-in tickets. We highly suggest you purchase your tickets in advance.
