The Promise of Liberty

Lake Bluff History Museum and the Lake Bluff 250 Committee invite the community to “The Promise of Liberty,” a unique experience usually reserved for major national museums.

The program will feature Seth Kaller, a leading expert on historic American documents, who will discuss and present early printings and replicas produced shortly after their adoption, including the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

Kaller aims to inspire a sense of unity that cuts across political divides, while encouraging gratitude for the liberties Americans enjoy and igniting a renewed commitment to defend and expand those freedoms.

He will speak to local students during the day on October 22, and a public presentation will take place at 7 p.m. in the Lake Forest High School Auditorium. The documents will be displayed in cases inside the school library.

Admission is free but advance reservations are required; secure your seat here!

The Museum would like to thank the following sponsors for their generous support, which allows the Lake Bluff History Museum to offer this program to the public: ELCO Mutual Life & Annuity; Michael & Karen Buoscio; Deer Path Inn; Lake Forest Bank & Trust; Lake Forest/Lake Bluff Rotary Club Foundation; Lawrence Framing & Autographs; and Lake Forest High School.
