Marietta House Museum was once the site where enslaved families lived and labored. Through archeology, we are preserving their stories through what they have left behind. We invite you to join us for our annual event Echoes of the Enslaved. Let’s celebrate, preserve, and honor the stories of those who once spent their lives here.
