Griffin Memorial Hospital Building – Lecture and Story Sharing: Thursday, December 5, 12:00-1:00pm @ Kodiak Public Library Multipurpose Room and Zoom
The Griffin Memorial Hospital Building is a historic landmark in Kodiak. Opening in 1940 as the first Western American hospital, it served as a medical facility for nearly 80 years. Work is underway for nominating it to the National Register of Historic Places and we need your help. Join us for a lecture by Chief Curator, Margaret Greutert, summarizing the current research compiled about the Hospital, followed by an informal time to share stories, information, or sentiments about the building.

Lecture and story sharing will take place both in-person and via Zoom. Zoom link: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/84131504770?pwd=NE03ZaazgyFAVLtqheh9V1nJ0Y5UJt.1
