The Key West Harry S. Truman Foundation and The Society of Presidential Descendants partner to present “Presidential Families Weekend and Forum” in February
The Key West Harry S. Truman Foundation, in partnership with The Society of Presidential Descendants, is pleased to announce a series of special events to be held in celebration of Presidents’ Day Weekend, Friday, February 17 through Monday, February 20, 2023.
Centerpiece of the event is a Saturday, February 18, forum featuring an assemblage of distinguished presidential descendants who, moderated by Dr. Kurt Graham, director of the federally operated Harry S. Truman Presidential Library and Museum, located in Independence, Missouri, will discuss aspects of “American Bipartisanship: Working Across the Aisle.”
On Sunday, February 19 and Monday, February 20, Clifton Truman Daniel, grandson of Harry S. Truman, will take the stage in a live performance of the long-running stage production, “Give ‘Em Hell, Harry!” Daniel is the first direct descendant to portray a presidential ancestor in a production of this kind. Both a scheduled and an encore performance of the highly acclaimed one-man show sold out early last year.
All events are to take place on the elegant grounds of the historic Harry S. Truman Little White House, 111 Front Street, Key West, Florida, where Harry S. Truman spent 11 working vacations during his 1945-1953 Presidency. Other weekend offerings include guided tours of the Historic Little White House, self-guided botanical lawn tours, ancillary cocktail parties, and a Monday BBQ on the Little White House lawn. The “Presidential Families Weekend and Forum” is presented with the support of the Monroe County Tourist Development Council.
