Williamstown Historical Museum Presents: 100 Years in White: Architecture of the FCC

What do shirt collars and the current building of the First Congregational Church have in common? How did Williams College create the circumstances making it necessary to redesign our building? Some of this information is common knowledge in Williamstown, but you may be surprised by some information that has newly been connected to this story. Moira Jones will tie new information with the old to tell the whole story of why the 1869 Neo-Romanesque building was renovated before its 50th birthday.
