Event Description:

The film festival continues to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the Transcontinental Railroad with the showing of Ken Burn’s "The West: The Grandest Enterprise Under God". The documentary situates the creation of the Transcontinental Railroad in the larger story of American Westward Expansion. It also delves into the impact on the millions of American Bison living on the prairie.

This year's film festival selections will focus on innovation in transportation during the homestead era and mark the 50th anniversary of the Apollo lunar landing. Join us on Saturdays and Sundays through February and early March at 2:00 p.m., in the Homestead National Monument of America Education Center to catch them all!
