Our final outing for the 2024 spring/summer Lewis and Clark Kids’ Club series will take students on a thrilling journey through their own backyard, in Sioux City, Iowa, on Saturday, September 21, 2024. Students will spend time at the Mid American Aviation Museum, the Sioux City Railroad Museum, the Sioux City Art Center, and the Sioux City Public Museum. At the Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center, we often hear local visitors say things like, “I had no idea this was here.” We’re hoping that a program in hometown tourism will teach our young people to always look for art, culture, music, and history within their own communities.
