Two remarkable men of the early 1800s highlight an evening at the Lewis & Clark Boat House and Museum. York, the enslaved man who was integral to the Lewis & Clark Expedition, is at the heart of a modern-day river journey in the half-hour film "Big Medicine: York Outdoors."
Then St. Charles historian Dorris Keeven-Franke tells the story of Archer Alexander, an enslaved man who saved hundreds of lives by sneaking his way to Union troops and informing leaders of a plan to destroy an important bridge.
Coming to the Boat House Sept. 30. Look for details soon!
