Celebrate Black History Month and learn about Florida’s historic Fort Mose, the first legally sanctioned free-Black settlement in what is now the United States, located near St. Augustine. Learn about the lives of its past residents and the impact of Fort Mose on Florida history. Guests will create their own tri-corn hat, representing those worn by Fort Mose’s soldiers.

Each free program runs from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and is designed for children ages 4 to 8 and their families.

This event will be at the Fort Braden Branch Library.
