Voices of Elmwood™ is a celebration of history, designed to honor our region’s heritage and the lives of the many people buried at Owensboro’s Elmwood Cemetery.
This year’s edition of Voices of Elmwood™ will be paying a special tribute to the 80th Anniversary of the ending of World War II. Our stories will include those of the brave men and women who served in the military and the stories of people who served on the home front- all portrayed by local actors in period costumes.
Held at Rosehill-Elmwood Cemetery, Voices of Elmwood™ opens on September 18th and runs for a total of nine evenings in September and October, with tent shows on October 2-4 taking the place of the 6pm wagon ride.
