The Abraham Lincoln Association was organized in 1908 as the Lincoln Centennial Association. On February 12^th of the following year, the Association led the national celebration of Lincoln's 100^th birthday by sponsoring a banquet at the Illinois State Arsenal in Springfield.  Among the 758 guests were Robert Todd Lincoln and William Jennings Bryan.  Some 1,200 spectators watched from the gallery.  This event marked the beginning of the Abraham Lincoln Association.

 As we approach the Association's 100^th anniversary and Lincoln's 200^th birthday, we invite you to join with the Association and its over 700 members in celebrating those events and continuing the Association's tradition of leadership in disseminating the remarkable story of Abraham Lincoln.

Welcome to the Abraham Lincoln Association.
