Alegria will discuss the history and lore of East Mendenhall Street by traveling virtually down the one-way street. Participants will learn about Bozeman’s red-light district and East Side School (now Hawthorne Elementary School), as well as notable characters such as the Frazier family, Madam Libbie Hayes and long-time resident Fannie Woodson.
