Lowell Public Library to host Historical Society Exhibit

IHS’s Traveling Exhibit Faces of the Civil War

Civil War history will come alive for visitors who experience Faces of the Civil War, an Indiana

Historical Society (IHS) traveling exhibit. The library will host the exhibit from February 26 to March 28.

The exhibit brings to life the stories of many Hoosiers whose lives were touched and, in some cases, taken, by the Civil War. Not all are well known or revered—many were just everyday citizens fulfilling their duties to their friends, family, state, and country. Rather than focusing on statistics and large-scale battles, the exhibit illustrates how regular people coped with the tragic experiences of the day—all from an Indiana perspective.
