Event Details
Mrs. Lincoln's life has come full circle as she returns to Springfield, Illinoi to take up residence with her sister Elizabeth. She recalls the days of her girlhood in the genteel society of Lexington, Kentucky, her marriage to the gangly young lawyer, and eventually her rise to become the First Lady. Share in her excitement as she first sees the Executive Mansion. Share in her grief as she looses three of her sons and her beloved husband.
This presentation will be followed by a Q&A of costume acquisition and construction. Sponsored by the American Sewing Guild.
