Native Son, National Treasure Endowment Campaign Carl Sandburg Historic Site a***ociation |
| 152 |
THANK YOU! With all of the challenges facing museums and historic sites in Illinois, it is time to redouble our efforts to protect the Carl Sandburg State Historic Site and the legacy of our native son and national treasure. To accomplish this goal, the Carl Sandburg Historic Site a***ociation (CSHSA) was chosen by the Galesburg Community Foundation (GCF) to partic****te in an Endowment Match Program. Prior to the June 30, 2016 deadline the CSHSA raised just over $12,000 toward an endowment to support the Historic Site and the GCF has matched our efforts with the $10,000 matching grant.This is our initial effort to start an endowment and we hope to see it grow to a point where the interest from the endowment will be significant enough to enrich the Carl Sandburg Historic Site in the future. Thank you, especially, to the Galesburg Community Foundation for their efforts and support for preserving the heritage and history of Galesburg. CURRENT ENDOWMENT TOTAL $31,302 |

Carl Sandburg Birthplace and Visitor Center The home where poet and author Carl Sandburg was born and its adjacent grounds containing a park and garden are located at 331 East Third Street on the south side of Galesburg, Illinois. Click here for a map and access to directions. Next door is the Visitor's Center. It contains a museum, a museum shop, a small theater where several informative videos about Carl Sandburg are shown and a renovated "barn" which is actually a small theatre with a few more exhibits and where live performances are often held. The museum contains hundreds of artifacts and modern colorful displays appropriate for all ages. The Carl Sandburg Historic Site is supported by the State of Illinois and the nonprofit Carl Sandburg Historic Site a***ociation. The a***ociation sponsors and partic****tes in many activities throughout the year to honor and remember Carl Sandburg. These include the "Penny Parade" which brings schoolchildren to the site to have fun while learning about Galesburg's most famous son. The a***ociation is a partic****ting sponsor of the Sandburg Days Festival For The Mind held each April. It hosts the Songbag Concert Series of folk music concerts (and sometimes other genres) held inside the Visitor's Center "Barn" theatre in the fall, winter and spring. Details of upcoming concerts are also available on the CSHSA Website. The a***ociation meets at 7pm on the second Tuesday of each month in the Visitors' Center. Guests and interested visitors are always welcome. The Carl Sandburg Historic Site a***ociation planned and funded a perennial garden and quotation walk in the back yard. The plantings are appropriate to Sandburg's era and surround Remembrance Rock, where the ashes of Carl Sandburg, his wife, Lilian, and two daughters, Margaret and Janet, are buried.
