Greg Capogna talks with Holly Harrar, Content & Social Director for Discover Lehigh Valley who shares with listeners — near and far — all the info on the great events and affordable attractions that are close to home, or just a short drive away to enjoy.

Then, Greg welcomes Martha Capwell Fox, Historian and Archives Coordinator for the National Canal Museum and Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor, to talk about about an ongoing exhibit at the National Museum of Industrial History – “The Works of a Mechanical Genius: The Legacy of John Fritz.”

This exhibit explores the life of John F. Fritz, general superintendent and chief engineer at the Bethlehem Iron Company, the parent company to the Bethlehem Steel Corporation.

Tune in to On Every Main Street Mondays from 6:30 to 7:00 PM following Lehigh Valley Arts Salon.
