Please join the library and the Missouri State Museum to learn about some of Missouri’s most significant trailblazers in this monthly series of programs in honor of Missouri's bicentennial. What is a trailblazer, you might ask? A trailblazer is someone who has impacted our culture through major events, leadership, innovation and more. In March, we'll highlight Meriwether Lewis and William Clark.
Lewis and Clark, along with their Corps of Discovery team, are famous for exploring a large part of what we now know as the United States. Because of this, they were offered important positions in government after their return. Over time they became revered figures, and many statues have been erected in their honor. Learn about these explorers and the significant impact they had on the state of Missouri.
Adults and teens. Please register to receive a Zoom link.
