A Walk Through Time is held in October each year at Forrest Cemetery, with over 60 portrayers. Parking is at the old Gadsden High School located at the corner of Walnut and S.12th St. From there, city trollies transport patrons back in time to the cemetery where they stroll at their leisure. Modern citizens dressed in period clothing portray some of Gadsden’s most interesting citizens from various eras of years gone by. A limited number of carts follow a circuit for those who tire easily. For handicapped or elderly patrons a portion of the characters can be seen throughout the afternoon in the chapel. No admission is charged for the event but donations are greatly appreciated as all proceeds go for the preservation of the cemetery.
Rain date will be October 27, 2024.
