Rhythm of the River
In this new Special Exhibit, explore the sounds that have shaped life along the water. From the splash of a paddle to the blast of a steamboat whistle, the River and its valley have always been alive with sound.
This exhibit invites you to listen in through original art, photographs, sheet music, sound recordings, and an irresistible collection of objects, such as the actual steam whistles and dinner chimes that once rang out on the luxurious steamboats carrying passengers up and down the River. Learn more here.
