Join us for a compelling presentation by Don Paustian as he shares his family’s personal history aboard the USS Honolulu. Paustian will trace the ship’s remarkable journey from Pearl Harbor through WWII, highlighting the pivotal events and locations it was part of. Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of both the ship’s service and the human stories tied to it. The program will also feature a large assortment of artifacts, offering a rare chance to see history up close.

Preregister here or at the door on the day of the event.

Admission is $5 for non-members and free for museum members. A delicious soup supper fundraiser will be available with all proceeds going to support our historic homes.

In case of bad weather, the program will be rescheduled for the following Tuesday—so mark your calendars for this winter tradition of history, learning, and community.
