Sylvester Manor Educational Farm and the Eastville Community Historical Society will present their Seventh Annual Black History Month Celebration online this Sunday, Feb. 28 at 2 p.m.
This year’s program will feature a conversation with Lauren Brincat, Curator at Lloyd’s Manor and Donnamarie Barnes, Curator at Sylvester Manor.
Moderated by Dr. Georgette Grier-Key, Executive Director Eastville Community Historical Society, the program will explore the connections between the families of Sylvester Manor and Lloyd’s Manor in Huntington, NY.
The two locations were connected through Tammero and Oyou of Sylvester Manor, whose grandson Jupiter Hammon of Lloyd’s Manor was the first published African American poet.
