In this milestone 40th episode, we’re unlocking the doors to one of Pennsylvania’s hidden gems—the Landis House in Perry County. What looks like an ordinary brick home holds an extraordinary story of international adventure, cultural preservation, and artistic inspiration.
Join host Sydney Harris as she sits down with Rebecca Myers, Project Director at the Perry County Council of the Arts, to explore how a small-town family with ties to Cuba, Germany, and Newport, PA turned their personal journey into a legacy for the community. Discover how four railroad cars of priceless art and furnishings, rescued from pre-WWII Germany, found their forever home in Newport—and how the Landis House now serves as a vibrant cultural hub, connecting history with creativity for generations to come.
From art classes and community exhibits to one-of-a-kind historical treasures, this episode is your invitation to experience the rich heritage and creative heartbeat of Perry County. Tune in and find out why the Landis House is more than a museum—it’s a living story still unfolding. Listen now!
