There’s a special spine-tingling feeling that comes over you when you realize you are standing in the very spot where Benjamin Franklin ran his printing press… where James Forten stood when he heard the Declaration of Independence read for the first time… where the Grimke sisters campaigned against slavery and for women’s equality at Philadelphia Hall.
When you settle in at one of Historic Philadelphia, Inc.’s Once Upon A Nation Storytelling Benches, you’ll hear stories about events that took place right where you are seated. There’s a power of place that helps make the stories we tell more vivid and memorable. And we think that’s pretty cool.
