Three Voices, One Shore: The Untold Stories of Ten Hills brings together song, dance, storytelling, and family activities to honor the layered histories connected to Ten Hills and the Blessing of the Bay. Together, we’ll explore the stories of Indigenous peoples, European settlement, and Africans brought here through slavery — histories that are deeply intertwined on this shore.
