SNAPSHOTS OF AMERICA 250: A Walk–Through History Weekend!


Located just 10 miles outside downtown Kansas City, visitors can explore 250 years of America’s History as they walk through “snapshots in time” across the museum park. Visit scenes from the American Revolution and the earliest Kansas settlers on up to World War II and the 1960s Civil Rights movement. Watch military drills on the lawn – visit camping tents and wagons trains – smell bread baking in the Farmhouse – pet the farmyard animals – take a pony ride – talk with indigenous tribal nations – stop by the stores in town – learn about segregation and equality – listen to live music – and more! Talk with expert historians from across the United States, excited to tell you their unique stories about the nation’s origins, and the different people and experiences that make us who we are! Admission is FREE with “goodwill donations encouraged” at the gate! All donations go to the Friends of Shawnee Town and our new Visitor Center! Check back for a complete schedule of demonstrations and actor performances. Event is rain or shine.
