You're Invited! Please join us for the Grand Opening of Spark! Places of Innovation, a traveling exhibition from the Smithsonian’s Museum on Main Street (MoMS) program, dives into innovation and invention happening in rural America. In small towns across America, people are creating new products, taking risks, meeting challenges together, and seizing upon exciting opportunities that change local life and sometimes reach far beyond. Spark! features stories from over 30 rural communities across the nation that reveal the dynamic relationship between place and creativity. Technical, social, cultural, artistic, or a combination of all of these—every innovation is as unique as each community.
This Grand Opening event follows "Sequoyah's Syllabary" a Spark! Presentation Series in the Fort Payne Opera House starting at 4pm.
A reception catered by the FPHS Culinary Program will take place in the Fort Payne Coal & Iron Building.
