Program Description

Details

Register and join Laurie Stein in person for a snapshot of Lake Forest during the 1920s, including the original flapper (Irene Castle) and the quintessential voice of ’20s youth (F. Scott Fitzgerald), all during an era of growth, grand homes, golf, and great social transformation. Discover what changes the decade wrought—and what it did not—in the lives of local women.
