Laura Ingalls Wilder - Genesee Country Village and Museum

Did you know that Almanzo Wilder was born near Malone, N.Y.? Or that Charles Ingalls was born in Cuba, N.Y.? Celebrate the writings of one of the most popular writers of 19th-century frontier life with Laura Ingalls Wilder Day on Aug. 11-12 and learn more about Laura's ties to Western New York. Commemorated through two television series and 10 novels, Laura Ingalls captured the imagination of girls of every age. For the museum's fifth year hosting this fun-filled and historic weekend, special guests will include the following: Ms Charlotte Stewart, the actress who portrayed teacher "Miss Beadle" in over 40 episodes of the television series Little House on the Prairie. Ms Lucy Lee Flippin, who performed as Almanzo's sister "Eliza Jane Wilder" -- Laura's teacher and future sister-in-law during the last several seasons of Little House on the Prairie. Both teachers will be available for an autograph session - twice each day of the event. Autographs are limited to 100 signatures per session. Visitors must pre-register for the autograph session and purchase a ticket. Registration will be located near the autograph area on the Village Square. Ticket prices are $5 for autograph signed on an item purchased at the museum and $10 for an autograph signed on an item brought from home. Note: these prices are per item, but include the signatures of both teachers. A Victorian Ladies' Fashion Show at the main stage area will show visitors what women of Laura's time period would have been wearing - view beautiful selections from the museum's closet all the while learning about undergarments and head coverings. This fashion show will include the history of the bustle and how it was worn. Meet the leading Laura Ingalls Wilder expert -- and renowned author and historian -- Mr William Anderson. Author of several books on the Ingalls family including Pioneer Girl: The Story of Laura Ingalls Wilder, Bill Anderson will be speaking each day and sharing his years of research with Laura fans. Book signings are free and will be available throughout the weekend. From kneading bread and churning butter to creating corn husk dolls ($1) or running sack races, the historic village will be alive with activities that a young Laura (or Almanzo) would have experienced.
