Several of the lecturers are authors presenting on their most current books.<\/p>\n<p>Sponsored by the Dunsire Family Foundation, all lectures in this series are free to the public and are held at the museum, 302 East Berry Street, Fort Wayne, at 2 pm on the first Sunday of October and November as well as January through June.

Mather Lecture Series was founded by the Rev. Mather in 1993. In the early 1990s, while serving as a member of the History Center&#8217;s board of directors, Mather proposed a series of free Sunday afternoon lectures so that everyone would have the opportunity to learn more about history that played a significant role in Fort Wayne and Allen County. Those lectures have been a staple of the History Center&#8217;s programming ever since.<\/p>\n<p>The History Center&#8217;s award winning blog, &#8220;History Center Notes and Queries&#8221;,\u00c2\u00a0supplements the Mather Lectures and the History Center&#8217;s publications such as the &#8220;Old Fort News&#8221; and provides information for those wishing to know more about our community as they explore the museum and other historical sites in the city and county. New posts to the blog can also be found via the History Center&#8217;s Facebook page.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, contact the History Center at (260) 426-2882 or visit the website at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fwhistorycenter.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.fwhistorycenter.com<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/fwcs\/134152.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Fort Wayne Community Schools Superintendent Dr. Wendy Robinson and Board President Mark GiaQuinta at a press conference to present ISTEP+ preliminary data.
