UPCOMING  EVENTS

 

Highway Sign - Some time ago, we lost our highway sign due to damaging tropical storm winds. Thanks to fundraising efforts and support from our fans and members, we are in the process of replacing our sign. Stay tuned for more information!

​

Karen A. Kirkman Kitchen - We are also in the process of rebuilding our kitchen, which burned down in the 1920's. Our new kitchen will help us better interpret our site, and give visual references to some of the working environments of the enslaved.
