HISTORIC HOME HOLIDAY EXHIBIT REMAINS ON DISPLAY
An exploration of holiday life and traditions on the plantation, plus the story of our town founder, offers something for all ages!
REMARKABLE ROLES:
A WOMAN’S HISTORY, 1745-2018
From September 10, 2018 through November 8, 2018, Gallery 1 tells the history of our area from 1745 to present day, through the lives of twelve local women. Each woman was fierce in her own way: for national independence, health, education, farming, town, history, family, and sometimes just survival in rough times. We hope you’ll take a moment to get to know these fine people, and the two amazing women featured in the gallery next door: Vivian and Debra Young: see Gallery 2 for more.
