By Ouachita Parish Public Library February 14, 2020

Back by popular demand, President Abraham Lincoln is coming to the Ouachita Parish Public Library. “Honest Abe” will visit two Ouachita Parish Public Library branches on February 25 to share stories from his life and times in remembrance of his birthday.

He will visit the Carver-McDonald Branch (2941 Renwick Street, Monroe) at 1:30 p.m. and the Main Branch (1800 Stubbs Avenue, Monroe) at 6:30 p.m. This program is suitable for ages 6 and up. 

Kevin Wood, who portrays Abraham Lincoln, has toured the country and taught hundreds of Americans the historic importance of the 16th president. Like all Ouachita Parish Public Library programs, these events are free to attend.
