VIRTUAL FIELD TRIP
Enjoy a personal view into the family life of Mary Todd Lincoln in a special one-time presentation at the Lincoln Home National Historic Site Visitor Center at 2:00p.m. on March 26. Experienced actor Pam Brown brings Mary to life in vivid detail, speaking on her memories of her sons as she packs up their things for the long trip from Springfield to a daunting future in Washington. At once heartwarming and tragic, Our Sons is sure to leave the audience with a new appreciation for Mrs. Lincoln and the sometimes harsh realities of motherhood.
The presentation runs approximately 30 minutes, with an additional 30 minutes following the performance for audience Q&A. No ticket required; admission is free.
