Third Thursday Lecture Series – The History of Deep Lake

This presentation will dive deep into the history of this strangely mystical place—a sizeable sinkhole surrounded by a citrus grove that has been the home of Native American leaders, the site of a bloody battle, a retreat for millionaire moguls, and the location of a wilderness prison known as the “Alcatraz of the Everglades.”

Guests should arrive at least 5 minutes prior to the beginning of the program or their seats may be given to others waiting on stand-by.
