About Looking for Lincoln
What is the Looking for Lincoln Heritage Coalition?
The Looking for Lincoln Heritage Coalition, LFL for short, is a consortium of
Illinois communities that share the legacy of Abraham Lincoln. The purpose of
the coalition is to tell the stories about Lincoln unique to each site and each
community. But Lincoln history alone is not enough. The Lincoln stories must be
shared in a creative way. So, in order to create a real visitor experience each
site in the LFL program must offer some level of interpretive programming.
While focusing upon Lincoln, the coalition also encompasses the rich history of
each participating community in order to create a broader context for Lincoln
and his times.
The participating communities and sites are not only linked to each other, but
are also tied closely to the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum in
Springfield. The Looking for Lincoln program makes it possible to extend the
reach of the Library and Museum so that the museum exhibits are just the
beginning of the Lincoln adventure. We want visitors to actually go to the real
places where Lincoln spent time.
The Looking for Lincoln Heritage Coalition helps communities and enhance
existing Lincoln sites or create new sites and programs. Then once those sites
are "visitor-ready," The coalition provides marketing support.
