Liberty Grove Historical Society has announced that its season opening on Sat., June 22 (10 – 4 pm) will feature a 1pm program about the Potawatomi of Northern Door Peninsula.
Forest County Potawatomi Nation Historical & Cultural Preservation Officer Sam Alloway will present a 1pm program on the Traditions and Cultures that helped these first people survive for hundreds of generations, endure forced migration from their homes in the 1830s and renew their communities.
Since time immemorial people have lived on the Door Peninsula. The last documented Potawatomi village in Liberty Grove migrated west in 1878 from Rowleys Bay across the Waters of Green Bay to Cedar River in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Sam Alloway’s program will address important questions, i.e. What was the essence of their language, culture and spirituality? What lessons should we learn from this era?
Enjoy the new Fishing Net Drying Rack Exhibit in the white barn. There are 12-historic Liberty Grove buildings open with Docents present at the Log House Museum and the white barn.
The LGHS Museum Campus is located on top of the hill next to the Grandview Town Park, just south of Ellison Bay.
