Verity Traditions
Buckle up as author, blogger, and Queen City historian Greg Hand leads a rambunctious tour through the old, weird Cincinnati!

Before his retirement, Hand provided 36 years of communication and public relations counsel to the University of Cincinnati, from which he graduated in 1974 with a degree in English literature. He is co-author, with WHS board member Kevin Grace, of three books about the university and edited a book of essays for UC’s 2019 bicentennial celebration. Hand previously served as editor of the “Western Hills Press,” which covered Cincinnati's western suburbs.

Hand created the “Cincinnati Curiosity" blog to “keep alive the weird soul of the Queen City.” With partners Molly Wellman and Kent Meloy, Hand presents discussions on local lore in bars and breweries through a program called Stand-up History. He is a freelance writer and regularly contributes to “Cincinnati Magazine” and WCPO-TV’s “Cincy Lifestyle.”

Talk begins at 6 p.m.; a light dinner will be served at 5:30 p.m.
