2025 Candlelight Illumination Sponsorship
In 2025, we are returning our annual Candlelight Illumination to its original occasion. Since 2013, we have held “Legacy Weekend” in commemoration of the closure of the Seminary Hospital, on September 16, 1863, after the departure of its final patient, Lt. Col. George McFarland. This event is intended to remember the experiences of the physicians, attendants, and patients who occupied Schmucker Hall, both inside and out. It began with an illumination to remember the patients; this year we will include the physicians and attendants, as well.
Join us on the evening of Friday, September 12 as we return Legacy Weekend to its roots.
Once again, you may sponsor a luminary, whether it’s someone connected to the hospital or anyone else of your choosing.
In doing so, you will help to both memorialize these individuals and support the mission of Seminary Ridge Museum.
