Woodlawn: People and Perspectives

Through text, images, and objects displayed throughout the house, visitors will understand the contributions of the many people who shaped Woodlawn’s past and present. Stories will include the Lewis family and the people they enslaved. The exhibit will highlight free Black families such as the Hollands who purchased land and built communities alongside Quaker families like the Troths. The preservation of Woodlawn in the 20th century will also be explored.
