Historians usually deal with documented facts. But what about rumors, myths, urban legends, and other apocryphal stories that have been passed around? From tall tales of the early Twin Cities, rumors of mysterious tunnels, ghostly hauntings, exaggerated exploits of gangsters, and more, this program will examine what local folklore reveals about how Twin Cities residents have liked to view themselves.

Presenter: Alex Weston, public historian, filmmaker, and Program Associate at the Minnesota Historical Society.

Tickets $8-12.
