IDAHO STATE HISTORICAL SOCIETY CELEBRATES ABRAHAM LINCOLN’S BIRTHDAY
BOISE, ID – Happy Birthday Mr. Lincoln! Celebrate Abraham Lincoln’s birthday on Saturday, February 11 at the Idaho State Archives (we are celebrating on Saturday due to his birthday falls on Sunday). Join us at Noon for remarks by David Leroy, “What Would Lincoln Say to President Trump”, the advice that history suggests Lincoln would give to President Trump at the outset of an administration in a divided country and a president who got fewer than 50% of the popular vote.
View the A. Lincoln: His Legacy in Idaho exhibit, an extraordinary collection gifted by David and Nancy Leroy. Cake and refreshments will be served and self-guided tours will be available.
- Saturday, February 11
- Noon – 2:00 p.m.
- Idaho State Archives: 2205 Old Penitentiary Road, Boise, Idaho 83712
