UnSeen BG returns for fall tour season

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – Fall tour season of Unseen BG is returning to bring historic tours through the Bowling Green area.

She acted alongside many members of our community and alongside her own family members, including her sister, brother and father, who all took part as well.

“I can’t wait to explore and honor the history of the town I’ve lived in for so long,” says Moriarty. “I understand the responsibility that comes with a position like this, and I am honored to be a part of the UnSeenBG family. See you on the tour!”
