Sarah Uthoff will be presenting Packing Up: the Story of Laura Ingalls Wilder. Come be transported back in time to 1894. Life hasn’t been easy for pioneer Laura Ingalls Wilder and her family. Since she married her Manly, they’ve tried to farm in South Dakota, Minnesota, and even Florida, but they’ve met problem after problem. Now having saved up a stake to start again in the land of the big, red apple, Mansfield, Missouri, Laura is packing up to leave De Smet for the last time. Each artifact in the old trunk holds a story and Laura will share them with you.
Offered through Humanities Iowa. This program is sponsored by the Guttenberg Library Foundation. Please note the change of day and time from past Library Foundation programs.
