11:00 - Radicals & Reformers History Walk
Radicals & Reformers - Commencement Weekend Offerings:

Sunday, May 24 11:00 AM

Walk with us through historic Westwood Cemetery. This guided tour promises a pleasing balance of Westwood's scenic landmarks, stories, and photographs of some of the many spirited men and women of Oberlin who simply refused the status quo. Find out which resident was remembered as "gentle, soft-spoken, tolerant and yet nobody's fool." Visit the headstone of the man who escaped from slavery (twice!) and later served on the Oberlin village council. Meet near the entrance of the cemetery to begin this historic journey.

Tickets must be purchased online or at the Monroe House's Museum Store. Tickets are not available at the start location. This tour is best suited for visitors 9 years of age and older. History walks may be cancelled and fees refunded if it is raining at the start time.
