RECREATING CIVILIAN LIFESTYLES
OF THE MID-19TH CENTURY!
We love sharing the lifestyles of mid-19th Century Americans through the accurate portrayal of all walks of civilian life.
Throughout the year, LHS members enjoy opportunities to attend workshops and participate in hands-on activities to increase their own knowledge of the mid-19th Century, enabling them to share this information with the public. Become a member, or hire us for your event.
Play, dance and learn with us
Picnics, dances, games, balls, dinners, sledding, sewing, cooking, chatting, crafts and skills — LHS has a historical something for everyone. What interests you? Become a member!
