“The Choice”

War of 1812 Living History

at Sotterley Plantation

 

Sotterley Plantation’s War of 1812 Living History “The Choice” will be part of the three year national bicentennial commemoration of this war in our region.

“The Choice” will take place on Saturday, May 25th at 10:00 a.m., 11:00 a.m., & 12:00 p.m.

The war with the British brought hardship to the plantation but a chance at freedom for the enslaved. At this living history presentation you will meet the people who lived and labored at Sotterley during the summer of 1814. 

Join us and be a part of the drama as slaves must make a difficult and daring choice. What will you decide?
