Museum on Main Street
THE SMITHSONIAN IS COMING TO KANSAS!
Humanities Kansas is pleased to announce a special Kansas tour of Voices and Votes: Democracy in America, the new Smithsonian Institution traveling exhibition from Museum on Main Street. The exhibit explores the history of American democracy and will tour six Kansas communities between March 25, 2023, through January 7, 2024. HK invites nonprofit cultural organizations, museums, art centers, public libraries, and others to apply to host the exhibition during its tour of the state.
Bring the Smithsonian to Your Hometown!
undefinedThe partnership between the Smithsonian Institution's Museum on Main Street program and Humanities Kansas extends the conversation about history, heritage, and ideas to communities statewide. High quality national exhibitions designed for small museums and other cultural organizations provide a springboard for explorations of local history and traditions, including highlights, turning points, and challenges. These local stories add to the larger national story to help us better understand American values and ideas.
