Will there be a next chapter for the Vermont Marble Museum?

Today on Vermont Edition: the history of the Vermont marble industry. Quarries around the state produced beautiful black, red, dark green and white marble. A Brandon historian will share stories of what it was like to work in a quarry, and the importance of marble to our region. We’ll also hear about the Marble Museum’s closure and the uncertain future of its collection, with the head of the Preservation Trust of Vermont.

Then: the annual Public Philosophy Week returns. Two local philosophy professors will tell us about upcoming philosophical lectures and mind-stimulating discussions around the state.
