Such a special afternoon spent listening to stories that truly stayed with us. 📚

Authors in April was a beautiful reminder of why storytelling matters and why the people preserving culture and tradition are so important. Eliot Stein brought such thoughtful insight into Custodians of Wonder, and it was an honor to hear these stories come to life.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and continues to support the LSUS Pioneer Heritage Center. Moments like this help keep history, curiosity, and wonder alive. ✨

“One of my favorite parts about the Pioneer Heritage Center is that when you step into one of the buildings, it really does feel like you’ve gone back in time.”

You’re not just learning it…you’re able to see it and experience it.
