What a year! 🎉 Here's a look back at 2026 with the Hart County Historical Society, from art sessions and speaker nights to prom photo day at the Woodson House and Civil War Days. And that's just the start, because so much more happened this year! Thank you to our community, members, volunteers, reenactors and partners. We couldn't do it without you. 💙 We've got BIG plans for 2027, and we want YOU there. Volunteer, become a member, and bring your friends!

Thank you to everyone who came out last night, and a special thank-you to Terry Jackson for a wonderful talk! 🙏 Terry Jackson brought our local history to life, and the questions and conversation afterward showed how much this community cares about where we came from. We're grateful to everyone who helped make the evening such a success.

If you love local history, here's another evening you won't want to miss. Our friends at the Barren County Historical Society present "Echoes from the Porch," a twilight walking tour of the historic buildings on Glasgow's West Washington Street.

📅 Thursday, October 22, 2026, at 5:30 PM (note the earlier start time)
📍 Meet in front of Vibratech, the former Barren County Schools Central Office
🚶 About 1 hour, no admission charge, and everyone is welcome!

We're proud to stand alongside the Barren County Historical Society in preserving and sharing our region's stories, and we look forward to working together on more events. Come out, bring a friend, and enjoy an evening with history! 🏛️
