As part of the nationwide America 250 celebration, the Mayborn Museum Complex is proud to present a special series of Smithsonian Channel screenings exploring pivotal moments, people, and stories that have shaped the United States.

Small towns are the heart and soul of America. At the turn of the century tightly-knit, communities, embody the pioneer spirit. Small town heroes like Will Rogers and jimmy Stewart capture the nation's hearts. In reality many are mired in poverty and desperation. As the city's expand, so the myth of the small town grows and continues to burn brightly in the minds of Americans.

This screening is part of our America 250 programming series and is included with regular museum admission.
