Registration opens January 8

Abe and Mary LLLJoin John and Pamela Voehl on Friday, Feb. 23 at 7 p.m., as they take us back in time to the evening of April 14, 1865. On April 9, word had reached Washington that Confederate General Robert E. Lee had unconditionally surrendered the Army of Northern Virginia to General U. S. Grant. This signified a death blow to the Confederacy, after four years of war and death. President Lincoln’s heavy burden is finally lessened, and the relief he feels is obvious. The President and Mrs. Lincoln could finally treat themselves to an enjoyable and relaxing evening at Ford’s Theater. We join them at the White House and we can hear their last full conversation before leaving for the theater.

You won’t want to miss this incredible portrayal of the last few hours the Lincolns would enjoy together, and to hear how the Voehls enact the conversations and the emotions the Lincolns were feeling during these moments before history was forever changed.

John Voehl is a nationally recognized Abraham Lincoln Presenter and Historian, based in the Denver area, having shared over 1,700 Lincoln living-history experiences in all 50-states, including 377 senior's groups. Pamela Voehl has partnered with John to show case the Lincoln couple. The Voehls are Life Members of the Association of Lincoln Presenters, and John is the Secretary. He's a Colorado Endowment for the Humanities Chautauqua Speaker. They are Charter Members of the Victorian Society of Colorado.
