Get a Sneak Preview of the Los Alamos Homestead Tour

A group of dedicated volunteers, under the auspices of the Fuller Lodge/Historic Districts Advisory Board, has put together a new tour of the homesteads that once dotted the townsite region of the Pajarito Plateau. Seventeen markers, which will be placed in seven locations around town, will be dedicated May 18, 2012, in honor of the 150th anniversary of the Homestead Act. Check back here for more information as the date draws near. In the meantime, check out the markers and learn some history by clicking on our Homestead Markers page.

Join us for the Atomic Film Festival This Summer

A remarkable number of films have been made related to Los Alamos, the making of the atomic bomb, fear of all-things-nuclear, and many more. The Los Alamos Historical Society is kicking off a free film festival this summer to begin exploring the issues raised by some of those films. Join us the fourth Wednesday of each month for films and post-film discussions. June 27 is Day One, July 25 is Atomic Cafe, and August 22 is Dr. Strangelove. Bring pillows, blankets, or cushions to relax on the floor of Fuller Lodge. Chairs will also be provided. The films are free, but the popcorn will be expensive! See you there!

Lecture Series Our 2011-2012 Centennial lecture series, sponsored by Los Alamos National Bank, is complete. The next lecture is Tuesday, Sept. 11, at 7:30 p.m. in Fuller Lodge. More information about the 2012-2013 lecture series will be coming soon.	Become A Fan! The Los Alamos Historical Museum has a page on Facebook.
