Join the interpretive staff at First Missouri State Capitol State Historic Site as they host the traveling exhibit “A Social History of Missouri.” The exhibit is a scaled replica of the Thomas Hart Benton mural of the same name, which is displayed in the Missouri state Capitol. Commissioned in 1935 and completed in 1936, the mural explores the history and tales of Missouri's past.
The exhibit will be set up in the backyard of the historic site from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. (weather permitting), and visitors are encouraged to look and discover on their own. Staff will be present to provide short programs and answer questions.
Event Time: 10 a.m. - 4 p.m.
This is one of many events Missouri State Parks is hosting to commemorate the state's bicentennial. To see a complete list of bicentennial-related events and learn more the commemoration, click here.
