Program Description
Details
Ages 18+. Learn about the lives and experiences of the Pullman Porters who lived and worked on Winter Park's vibrant train lines.
Since 1992, the Winter Park Public Library and the Olin Library at Rollins College have co-administered the Smith Research Grant to encourage scholarly research on the history of Winter Park. This grant is made possible by the estate of Dr. Rhea Marsh and Dorothy Lockhart Smith. The libraries both share the results. In keeping with the spirit of the Smiths' lifelong commitment to Winter Park's cultural and intellectual life, the sponsors encourage recipients to continue their interests in the city's history.
