6:00 PM - 8:00 PM (EST)

Join Train Curator, David Ziegler, as we learn the story of Ross Rowland Jr. and his precious freight!

Together we will cover the 1946 and 1976 freedom trains that acted as traveling museums with twenty six galleries curated from all over the United States. Some American treasures aboard were a moon rock, the Louisiana purchase, and Jesse Owen’s gold medals among hundreds more that travelled 26,000 miles with 138 stops!

Pre-registration is required by 4.2.26.
