Bicentennial


Micanopy celebrated its bicentennial in 2021.  Located at the center of the Historical Museum is a three-panel exhibit.  The first depicts the early settlement with a thumbnail story, “newly found” drawings of the original fort and numerous old photos from our archives.  The middle panel shows our town in 1916, The third shows our present-day town with current statistics, photos, and highlighted activities.

In tribute, in November 2021, an original play, “Stirring The Leaves”, written by Violet Asmuth, a long standing member of our Historical Society, was beautifully and professionally presented.  It included an all-local cast.  There is a booklet with script and photos available in the museum gift shop.
