Join the Redlands Community Senior Center’s Dessert & Dialogue at 12:15 p.m. Monday, Sept. 25, for Jennifer Dickerson, curator of history for the San Bernardino County Museum, discussing three new series of exhibits coming soon to the museum: The Hall of Biodiversity; Sculpted By Time, and The Blue Cut Fire. These exciting new interactive exhibits highlight the dynamic history of our region.

Dickerson graduated from UCLA with a BA in classical civilization and from Cal State University, Fullerton, with an MA in history. She worked at the Mission Inn Museum in Riverside for more than five years as the curator of history and has been with the San Bernardino County Museum for two years.

A donation of $3 is suggested for those 60 or older, and guests under 60 may enjoy lunch for $6.
