Our Fall For History Festival is a full weekend event starting on Thursday Night where we have a meet and greet with our participants and ends Sunday afternoon. It's easy to slip into the niche' of our small but hugely Historic town of Wallace Idaho. The event includes guided historic home tours, convening with our local historians, attending a banquet style dinner party and program, the "Bloodshed in Burke" Bus Tour and walk through time to see inside of our historic Homes Tour. Come along with us to dive into our past and discover Wallace Idaho.
