LEWISBURG, WV – Bluegrass band Harmony Creek Junction will take the stage at 7:30 p.m. May 23 at Carnegie Hall in Lewisburg. The performance is part of the Hall's "Pay What You Can" series.
"Liberty on the
Border: A Civil War Exhibition" will be on display through Aug. 25 at The Youth
Museum of Southern West Virginia in Beckley.
"Liberty on the
Border" focuses on the relationship between the states along the Ohio
River. Its many educational elements provide new
insights into the events leading up to the war, the war years and the "politics
of memory" that has occurred from post-war to modern day.
The exhibit has a regional focus, and its strong focus on non-military
events and civilian contributions puts the causes, effects and meaning of the
war in more personal terms. Visitors will learn the role that women and
children played in the war. The exhibit includes over 300 artifacts, archival
documents, lithographs and photographs. It also contains a multitude of
interactive elements and computer interactivities.
There are historic military artifacts for Civil War buffs, including an
original Sharp's carbine, Colt pistol and pike from John Brown's raid, the
Confederate battle flag, jacket and cap of Private Silas Buck referred to in
Ken Burn's Civil War program and other artifacts on loan from the Smithsonian
and other museums.
