Step back, in time, to see how a Civil War camp functioned and “meet” some of its inhabitants at the HISTORY SPEAKS: Civil War Stories event on Saturday, June 15 at Buckley Homestead. The event is from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. and will feature speakers, and educational activities, for all ages, throughout the day. Food will be available for purchase.
This event is presented by the Northwest Indiana Civil War Roundtable and made possible by grant funding through Indiana Humanities and in partnership with Lake County Parks and Recreation, and Crown Point Community Library.
In conjunction with this event, “Faces of Civil War”, an exhibit on loan from the Indiana Historical Society will be on display in the library’s art gallery at the Crown Point location. The exhibit will then be set up at the event.
Adventure Begins at Your Library is the library’s summer reading event theme. Embark on a journey this summer! Dive into the pages of thrilling tales, explore far-off lands, and meet fascinating characters. Readers of all ages can register and read to win prizes and attend programs, including crafts, performers, book clubs, special events, and more.
