History and Culture of Charlotte County

   We had a great season, thanks . . . see you in Sept!

We are now closed for the summer but if you want to take a tour you can schedule a tour through the "Contact Us" webpage tab above.

We are working on some upgrades to the museum and especially the new exhibit:

Lee Pitts Live
 
On June 18, the Lee Pitts Live Show came to the Blanchard House to tape four shows. The first show will air at 8:30 on Sunday, July 22, on Fox 4.  The Lee Pitts Live Show reaches 750,000 households in Lee, Collier, Charlotte, Hendry, Glades, Desoto and Sarasota counties.  We are delighted that Mr. Pitts chose to visit and highlight the Blanchard House Museum.
