Ghosts, spooky stories and…picnics? Cemeteries have held a prominent place in American minds, especially close to Halloween. But the meaning of cemeteries, how they were used, and even their locations has not been static: their purpose and role has changed over the years. Join Jeannie Regan-Dinius from the Indiana Department of Historic Preservation & Archaeology as she discusses her work in documenting Indiana’s cemeteries and how cemeteries have evolved over time.

This program is presented by Lake City Bank.
