Our time is up! If you have art on display at East End Coffee Co, please pick it up. It's OK to take it off the wall if you get there before next Monday. After that, art will be in the back room. Ask a friendly barista.

America250PA worked to get at least one podcast from each county this year. This is ours! The story of Dorcas Buchanan has been researched by Cate Barron. So some of the tales are not true, and there was so much more to learn about our OG Pioneer. Check it out. !

Episode 69 of our “Start Here, America Did!” podcast drops tomorrow!🎙️

Long before Lewistown became Lewistown, Dorcas Buchanan was helping build a life on the Pennsylvania frontier. In this episode, journalist and Lewistown native Cate Barron uncovers the remarkable story of a woman whose life spanned nearly the entire 18th century. ✨
