The Overland Trail Museum is proud to announce the opening of the Smithsonian exhibition, “Journey Stories”. This exhibition shows how our evolving mobility changed a young nation. Accounts of travelers themselves express the hopes and promises of fresh starts, the grim realities of forced migrations and difficult journeys and the thrills of personal travel. The exhibit can be seen in the High Plains Education Center beginning April 5th, to be closing the weekend of May 17. Due to damage sustained in the September flood the main museum building will remain closed while construction is being completed. Visitors may enter the museum grounds through the courtyard gate by the main parking lot and proceed to the High Plains Education Center to view the exhibit. The village buildings and the High Plains Education Center will be open during regular business hours: Monday – Saturday, 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. Regular Museum admission will be charged. Please call the museum for more information and watch for information about special programs and events surrounding this exhibit: 522-3895.
