Arts & Entertainment
Categories: Museums

The North Dakota Humanities Council is sponsoring the state’s third Museum on Main Street, a Smithsonian traveling exhibit, in 2009-10, “Journey Stories.” Journey Stories examines how and why Americans have traveled from where they were rooted to the next place, in particular, this place called North Dakota. With the forced movement of Native peoples in the state over the last two centuries; the many explorers who traversed this unmapped land since the 1700s; and the immigrants, both historical and contemporary, who have come to North Dakota and stayed or moved on, make this an appealing and important exhibit. The many means of transportation, from horses to oxcarts to railroads, steamboats, canoes, and automobiles, have all left their mark on the state’s landscape and history.
