In conjunction with Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry, the Red Cloud Opera House is proud to present the Smithsonian SITES poster exhibit, A Place for All People.

Organized by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service (SITES) in collaboration with the National Museum of African American History and Culture, A Place for All People highlights key artifacts that tell the rich and diverse story of the African American experience. From the child-size shackles of a slave and the clothing worn by Carlotta Walls on her first day at Little Rock Central High School to Chuck Berry’s Gibson guitar, “Maybellene,” and the track shoes worn by Olympian Carl Lewis, the exhibition presents a living history that reflects challenge, triumph, faith and hope.

The exhibit will be on view in the Red Cloud Opera House through November 2020, or online as a digital exhibit by clicking here.

Digital exhibits have been developed with the support of  Humanities Nebraska and the National Endowment for the Humanities as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act.
