SUMMARY:Everyday Democracy: Life\, Liberty\, and the Pursuit of Happiness in Johnson County
DESCRIPTION:Democracy isn’t only written in founding documents or decided at the ballot box — it’s lived every day.

This new exhibition explores how everyday experiences of Johnson Countians have shaped the meaning of Life\, Liberty\, and the Pursuit of Happiness — and asks what role each of us will play in democracy’s future.

Both United We Play and The Story of US: America at 250 (opening April 20) are included with admission. \nJoin us as Kansas City–and the world–play united.

SUMMARY:Historical Covered Wagon Tours
DESCRIPTION:Climb aboard an Old West\, mule-drawn wagon for an easy tour of the Independence Square\, home of three historic “westward ho” trails. \nSeveral historical itineraries are offered. They might include: two Civil War battle sites; the 1859 Jail that held Frank James; the slave-built 1827 courthouse; the home where Bess Truman was born; and Clinton’s Soda Fountain\, where Harry Truman had his first job. \nCrisscross two overlapping battlefields\, where your driver points out what happened there; circle the Bingham-Waggoner estate\, where the artist George Caleb Bingham destroyed a general with a paint brush; pass the 1879 train depot where Frank James stepped off of the train on his way to jail; and roll through the wagon swales left in the ground by pioneer wagons going west. \nOther possibilities include school field trips\, group tours\, and a chuck wagon feast (which may be included for groups of 15 or more — must plan in advance). \nLive an adventure with every turn of the corner on our museum on wheels! \nNote: The address is the 1859 Jail and is the pick-up point for the historical tour. Monday – Saturday with advanced reservations required 9 am – 4 pm\, evenings available upon request.
