History in Bloom

Celebrate the remarkable history of women and the legacies they pave today at this free, community event at the Kenosha Civil War Museum! Immerse yourself in the Victorian Language of Flowers as you build your own mini-bouquet (courtesy of Howland Flowers) to take home and learn the Language of the Fan in the Resource Center. Peruse a mini vendor market highlighting local, women-owned businesses and treat yourself to an antipasto grazing station (courtesy of Bell’Assai Bistro).

At 2:00pm, attendees can attend a first-person performance of Abigail Adams by actress and historian, Leslie Goddard.

This event is family-friendly and is open to all. Crafts, flower bouquets, and snacks will be as supplies last.

Thank you to the Kenosha Community Foundation for helping this event come to life, and to our partners: Howland Flowers and Bell’Assai Bistro.
