Farewell to Lafayette: A Bicentennial Tribute
The day will honor Lafayette’s legacy and reflect on his enduring influence on American liberty, democracy, and friendship. Welcomed with great fanfare across the new republic, including multiple visits to Woodlawn, Lafayette’s journey was a powerful reaffirmation of the Franco-American bond. Now, two hundred years later, we bid him farewell with history, storytelling, and community.
