Join us for a special presentation by David Purcell, MNA supervisory archaeologist, historian, and "Wagon Road to Mother Road" exhibit curator.Based on the museum’s archaeological surveys in Petrified Forest National Park, "Wagon Road to Mother Road" uncovers Route 66’s wilder side—stories of revelry, hardship, and tragedy revealed through tens of thousands of discarded objects that challenge the highway’s more nostalgic image.
The presentation takes place on Twilight Thursday during which the Museum extends pay-what-you-wish admission to all visitors.
