Tim Adriance
This year marks the 150th Anniversary of the Civil War, which has been called the gravest war in American history. Our presenter, Tim Adriance is a popular lecturer and tour guide . He has been active in historic education, preservation and interpretation since 1983. He is recognized as a leading authority on early architecture and history in Bergen County and the surrounding region and his knowledge and experience with the unique Dutch houses of this region are widely known. Since 1991 Tim has owned and operated Bergen County’s only historic restoration and consulting firm.
His much-acclaimed one-man living history program, “A Soldier’s Life: The Life and Times of a Civil War Soldier,” has been performed by Tim for thousands and on November 1st he will help us to understand what life was like for one of our area’s own Civil War fighters.
