NEH on the Road: Going Places

Create humanities programs supplementing the exhibition "Going Places" for tourist and local audiences. Programs may include lectures and panel discussions, tours specifically created for school students, and family programs that connect our audiences to Park City stories and themes of the exhibit "Going Places." These formal and informal gatherings will be designed to appeal to those who have experienced the town's history and newcomers wishing to learn more and connect to the community. One possible local theme - paralleling "Going Places" content exploring public transportation on stagecoaches - is the Park City Museum's original Kimball Bros. stagecoach and its importance to the growth of the mining camp into a booming mining town.
