Oldest Twin Cities: A Guide to Historic Treasures with Julie Jo Severson

April 27, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm CDT

 
 

 
While blending old-world history with modern-day relevance, local author Julie Jo Severson explores hidden and legendary gems throughout the region she’s called home most of her life in her new local guidebook Oldest Twin Cities: A Guide to Historic Treasures. From a tiny, old-school magic shop tracing back to 1899 to a sacred cave tucked below 450-million-year-old bluffs, Oldest Twin Cities pays homage to enduring treasures and natural wonders in our midst. Julie Jo is also the author of Secret Twin Cities: A Guide to the Weird, Wonderful, and Obscure, which she describes as a whimsical tour of the Twin Cities through the eyes of the unusual. 
 
About the Author: 
Julie Jo Severson works as a freelance journalist, editor, and personal historian helping individuals record their life stories. A fourth-generation, lifelong Minnesotan, she’s still constantly adding to her local bucket list and sneaks in mini-excursions throughout the metro whenever she has the opportunity.
