Programs and events, unless otherwise noted, are open to the public and free of charge. May is National Preservation Month This year's theme focuses on three words: this place matters.

Everyone has a special place that you can't live without. Now is the time to celebrate its meaning and join the larger conversation of local preservation. On your next visit to the History Center, pick up a This Place Matters sign - or download and print the sign from the website at:

Use social media - Facebook, Instagram or Twitter by using #ThisPlaceMatters Bring your picture to History Center for display on our community bulletin board. Polk on the Move May is both National Train Day (May 14) and National Bike Month and we want to explore some of the ways Polk has been on the move. Map the various train and road routes that have defined our county, plan a bicycling day with your family and match different modes of transportation to the correct time period. Architectural Tour May 21, 11 a.m. The historic 1908 Courthouse, home of the History Center, should soon receive state and federal funds for the continuing restoration of the building. This will complete necessary interior preservation to ensure it stands for future generations because "this place matters." Lunch and Learn Lecture Series

Eskin, Ph.D., Associate Professor of English at Florida Southern College, will present "Jewish Families of Polk County (1909-present): Growing Up and Planting Roots," a lecture about several prominent families who settled in Polk County. Eskin's recent oral history project, "Growing Up Jewish in Polk County," will be the basis for this discussion including early settlers in Lakeland and Lake Wales. You will hear about Cyrus Wolfson, who was awed by the clear water in Lake Mirror in 1909 and left his job in New York City to peddle goods around Polk. Did you know that the property on which the Lake Wales City Hall and Fire Department are built was once orange groves owned by Harry Friedlander? Eskin will also share images from the collections of the Temple Emanuel Archive that are not on display. Eskin's lecture will mark the opening of an exhibit at the History Center.

"Suddenly Jewish: Jews Raised as Gentiles Discover Their Jewish Roots" (Brandeis Series in American Jewish History, Culture, and Life) by Barbara Kessel. "What is it like to find out you are not who you thought you were?" This book is based on interviews with more than 160 people who were raised as non-jews only to learn at some point in their lives that they are of Jewish descent. With humor, candor and deep emotion, Kessell shares the emotional upheaval people who refashioned their self-image felt. New Exhibit Temporary Exhibit: Growing up Jewish: The Jewish Families of Polk County (1909-present) The first Jewish families that came to Polk left their mark on the county's industries, commerce, agriculture, legal and political life. This exhibit provides timelines for seven extended families, offering slices of their rich lives. Artifacts include cultural and religious items with explanations of their usages and significance for Jews. Many of the religious items have been gathered from the families represented on the walls. Special thanks to the Florida Humanities Council for helping to make this exhibit possible. The gift shop at the History Center offers a wide selection of books about Polk history, including a new title "Florida's First Billboards - Florida Citrus Ongoing Exhibits:
5 Crate Labels," featuring the unique and whimsical artwork that adorned citrus crates in an earlier era. Guided Cemetery Tours Available "Spessard L. Holland - Polk County's Statesman " Bartow native Spessard L. Holland's career in public service spanned 50 years, serving as county judge, Florida state senator, Florida governor and U.S. senator.
