Journey Stories is a powerful Smithsonian exhibition that shows how the United States was forever changed by the expansion of mobility and transportation. Journey Stories illustrates the diversity of America’s story by immigration, migration, innovation, and freedom. Journey Stories is an exhibit about the search of the American dream through expansion and migration as well as the freedoms and joys of the open road. The exhibition will also explore the impact that roads and transportation had on different groups of people in the United States.
Journey Stories will engage the audience through historical imagery, audio and artifacts to help bring the stories to life.
An exhibit that explores travel and migration over the years in Fort Sumner will complement Journey Stories at the Bosque Redondo Memorial. Fort Sumner was selected by the New Mexico Humanities Council as one of the six communities in New Mexico to host this Smithsonian traveling exhibition. A series of programs and lectures to accompany the exhibition will be announced at a later date.
The exhibition at Bosque Redondo Memorial has been made possible by a generous $2,000 grant from the New Mexico Humanities Council.
