"Glory" tells the story of the 54th Massachusetts Regiment, the first African-American regiment to serve during the Civil War. Twenty men enlisted in Rutland, Vt., to join the regiment, and fight for their country.
Two days after the film showing, a new sculpture by local artist Don Ramey, funded by Rutland Regional Medical Center, will be added to the Rutland Sculpture Trail. It will honor the local enlistees, and all African-American Vermonters who served in the regiment. The unveiling is May 17 at noon on Center Street, near the intersection of Merchants Row. Hosted by: I Love Rutland, Vermont, The Paramount Theatre, Carving Studio & Sculpture Center and Rutland Regional Medical Center.
