The casts are based on molds that were made during Lincoln’s lifetime: one face mask was made in 1860, and the other mask and a set of two hands were made in 1865. In addition to the tactile, we will also explore, through verbal descriptions and storytelling, other nearby portraits of Abraham Lincoln: a recently acquired life size oil painting of Lincoln by W.F.K. Travers, and the iconic "cracked plate" photograph by Alexander Gardner.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Corbel",sans-serif;color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Corbel",sans-serif;color:black;background:yellow'>Tour dates are June 27 at 5-6 pm, and July 13 at 1-2 pm</span><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Corbel",sans-serif;color:black'>.
