William Hosley has spend his career talking about historic preservation, urbanism and creativity. He says places like Connecticut have long been hotbeds of innovation and art – but residents sometimes don’t see the rich history that’s right around them.

Tonight at 7pm, Hosley will be speaking as part of the Rose Nader Circle lecture series in Winsted. It takes place at Northwestern Community College.  The lecture is called "Valuing Your Sense of Place, History and Community."
