Did you know that Lincoln stayed at the Willard before his first inauguration? This evening, as part of a city-wide celebration to commemorate Lincoln's 200th birthday, the Willard's executive chef re-creates selections from Lincoln's second inaugural dinner, which was held on March 6, 1865. Before dinner, enjoy a glass of sherry, while Harry Rubenstein, curator at the National Museum of American History, gives a short presentation on Lincoln.
