Dr. Naam Guest Speaker at Tonight's Historical Presentation

The Effingham County Museum’s next Historical Presentation will take place tonight at 7:00 p.m. on the Museum’s second floor. 

Presenter for the evening is Dr. Nash Naam. This is a rescheduled program that had to be cancelled last month.

When he was named as Effingham Citizen of the Year in 2018, a letter from one of his children nominated him for the honor with these words, “Perhaps my father loves this country so much because he, himself exemplifies the American dream and core American values.” A member of the public wrote, “A poor young man born in a faraway land who emigrated to these United States, worked hard, did well and now gives back to his community.”

In keeping with what he exemplifies, Dr. Naam’s topic for the evening will be a “Tribute to America.”

As in the past the lecture series is sponsored by the Effingham County Cultural Center and Museum Association, Inc., an organization devoted to the preservation of the fascinating  history of the county. The public is encouraged to attend the January presentation. There is no admission charge. Seating is limited.

The series will continue the second Thursday of each month through March of 2023.
