Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis:
An American Legacy
Sunday, April 22, at 3:00 P.M.
She was a Kennedy. She was an Onassis. Her preservation efforts galvanized the country to protect its historic monuments. Aided by her public profile, her work helped bring about the Historic Preservation Act of 1966: the most far-reaching preservation legislation ever enacted in the United States. This free program is open to the public and provided by Jill Holland of the American Historical Theatre and funded by the Public Scholars Project of the NJ Council for the Humanities, a State Partner of the National Endowment for the Humanities.
