Skirmish of Pine Bluff

Join invited speaker Ski Witzofsky as she tells about how the Civil War was not just big battles; it was also many small skirmishers. One such, but little known skirmish happened on a hot August day in 1864. During this theater program, learn about this tragic between the rivers incident that happened near Great Western Furnace and discover what happened to a 83rd Illinois company that was attacked by a greatly outnumbered guerrilla force 150 years ago.

Program is included with general admission to the Homeplace.
