The Friends of Longfellow House–Washington's Headquarters is raising money to restore some of the damaged furnishings and artifacts in Henry W. Longfellow's study. This video explains the importance of that space in American culture and the work we have ahead. 

Longfellow's study is on the ground floor of his home in Cambridge, Massachusetts, now called Longfellow House–Washington's Headquarters National Historic Site and part of the U.S. National Park Service. The Friends is a non-profit organization formed to support activity at the House. When health conditions permit, visitors will once again be able to see Longfellow's home and study for free. We want the room to look as handsome and accurate and possible.
