History Happy Hour: The WWII Hoosier Homefront

Stay connected with the stories of your state while you’re stuck at home. Bring your own beverage and join us for a series of insightful conversations with some of Indiana’s most interesting historians.

The Hoosier Homefront

Seventy-five years ago, World War II changed the lives of Hoosiers and all Americans. Young soldiers set off to fight while those at home became determined to support the war effort, run factories and plant victory gardens. The so-called good war challenged everyone, including women and children, as it tested the generation’s commitment to democracy. Join Hoosier historian extraordinaire James H. Madison to explore the fascinating stories behind our greatest generation that stepped up to serve their country. 

Free. Additional opportunities available to support the IHS Programs and Collections.

Online. Registration for this event will close two hours before the program. Guests will receive a hyperlink for the event after registration.

This happy hour is brought to you by OneAmerica Financial Partners, a national provider in the insurance and financial services marketplace.
