Rocky Ford Museum Features The Dry for Black History Month

The Rocky Ford Museum hosted Alice Craig McDonald, who gave a presentation on "The Dry," an early Southeast Colorado settlement that was once located near Manzanola. 

Community members gathered at The Rocky Ford Museum to hear Alice Craig McDonald speak of her time living at "The Dry."

This large display case is full of Craig family heirlooms including photos of "The Dry," various newspaper clippings, magazine articles, a book and more. It can be seen through the end of February in celebration of Black History Month.
