The Story of US: America at 250

The Story of US: America at 250 explores the ideals, conflicts and turning points that
shaped the nation. Featuring historic documents on loan from the National
Archives—many seldom seen outside Washington, D.C.—the exhibition traces how
America’s founding principles have been tested, challenged and expanded over 250
years. Paired with artifacts and images from the Truman Library’s collections, these
landmark records reveal democracy in action, illuminated by the voice and values of
President Harry S. Truman. This exhibition will be open to the public April 20 to May 24.
