Program Description

Event Details

Have you ever wondered about the origin of the crazy words and phrases we use? From “breaking the ice” to “a wild goose chase,” these seemingly illogical expressions fill our everyday language without a second thought. A museum educator from the Museum of Early Trades and Crafts will share the strange and varied origins of a range of English language idioms and sayings.

Registration is required to receive the Zoom link.

This program is graciously shared with us by our friends at the Kemmerer Library, Harding Township
