Description
To commemorate Abraham Lincoln's birthday, please join us at Lincoln Boyhood National Memorial for the 2025 Lincoln Day program which will include presentation of the colors by the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War, special music, featured speaker, and other ceremonial activities to honor Abraham Lincoln and his family.
Our featured speaker, Joshua Claybourn, is a lifelong resident of southern Indiana, attorney, historian and author. He is vice president of the Abraham Lincoln Association and board member of the Abraham Lincoln Institute. He will examine Nancy Lincoln's life and her influence in shaping Abraham's character and values.
Following the indoor program, the traditional pilgrimage to the gravesite of Nancy Hanks Lincoln for a wreath laying ceremony will be held. All are welcome to a reception in the Nancy Hanks Lincoln Hall at the conclusion of the program.
