The Hayes Presidential Center’s exhibit commemorating the 150th anniversary of the Civil War.
Civil War: Battlefield & Homefront is on display NOW through Jan. 29.
As the exhibit’s title implies, Civil War: Battlefield & Homefront relates the war experiences of both soldiers and civilains. Histories of the war rarely delve into the hardships endured by the wives, daughters, mothers, and men who were not on the front lines. Personal letters and artifacts from such individuals shed new light on the far-reaching toll of the war. Many items included in the exhibition never have been on display before. They are on loan from the L.M. Strayer Collection.
Civil War: Battlefield & Homefront is open from 9 am-5 pm Tuesday-Saturday and noon-5 pm Sunday. (Closed Easter day). Admission is $7.50/adult, $6.50 senior citizen (age 60+), and $3.00 children ages 6-12.
