Join us for our "Double Feature!" Explore history with our Cradle to Grave program and dive into the life of James A. Garfield, as narrated by a direct descendant. This concise discussion will highlight four significant stages of President Garfield's life: his early years at the cabin in Moreland Hills, his education and initial career at the Western Reserve Eclectic Institute (now Hiram College), his political activities at the Mentor Farm (JAGA), and his final resting place at Lake View Cemetery. This will be followed by a brief discussion on the truths and myths surrounding the Netflix docudrama "Death by Lightning." A Q&A session will conclude the event.
