Voices and Votes: Democracy in America

Traveling Exhibit on display until October 17th

Voices & Votes: Democracy in America is a traveling Smithsonian exhibition that explores the action, reaction, vision, and revision that democracy demands as Americans continue to question how to shape our country. Join us to learn more about the bold American experiment of a government run by and for the people, and its inherent push & pull over 250 years.
Voices & Votes: Democracy in America is part of Museum on Main Street, a collaboration between the Smithsonian Institution, Utah Humanities, and the Museum of Uintah County.

Happy World Postcard Day! Do you own any cool postcards? Here are some postcards from our collection! Caroline Harrison was born on this day in 1832. She served as first lady from 1889 to 1892 as the wife of the 23rd president, Benjamin Harrison. Caroline was passionate about the arts, especially painting. She had a love for china and catalogued the china from previous presidents, which led her to establish "The White House China Collection." Caroline also had electricity installed in the White House and modernized many service spaces, including the kitchens. Tomorrow is World Postcard Day! 📫 Have you ever sent someone a postcard?
