March 4 is the birthday of Jacob Beilhart, a man who organized a “communitarian” group in Ohio during the upheavals of the 1890s. The group was based on principles of hard work, tolerance and peace.

Come join Diane Wright as we explore these “communitarians,” and other utopian experiments of the 19th century. Service leader: Linda Amspaugh
