Built in 1843, this historical home is the former residence of state official William Knott and his wife, Luella.  In 1865 the home served as temporary Union Headquarters and it is where the Emancipation Proclamation was read in Florida, on May 20, 1865, a full month before June 19, 1865 when the remainder of the nation recognized that all enslaved persons were emancipated. Restored to its 1928 grandeur, the home is now a museum.

Aaron Lewis, the founder of the multi-platinum band, Staind, will be making a stop on his 2024 Acoustic Tour in Tallahassee.

Aaron Lewis grew up in Springfield, Vermont, listening to his grandparents' country 8-tracks.  Those roots inspired the multi-platinum Staind founder to return to his origins for the #1 Billboard Country Album debut Town Line and Sinner, as well as Billboard’s #1 Hot Country Song debut “Am I The Only One,” only the 9th time since 1958.  Having recorded with George Jones, Willie Nelson, Charlie Daniels, Alison Krauss and Vince Gill, Lewis has put a traditionalist brand on his outlier country. His latest album, Frayed At Both Ends, offers the hard touring/15-million selling workingman’s country star at his most personal and unplugged – making for an intimate record that reflects his 2024 acoustic tour.
