Crossroads: Change in Rural America is part of Museum on Main Street, a collaboration between the Smithsonian Institution and Wyoming Humanities.
Crossroads: Change in Rural America, offers small communities a chance to look at their own paths to highlight the changes that affected their fortunes over the past century. Rural communities often struggle with negative views of economic destruction, overused land, and dwindling populations, although these conditions do happen, it overshadows the complexity of rural America and how much it has impacted our country and continues to do so.
Wyoming is often depicted this way; Crossroads seeks to expand our understanding of rural America and what it contributes towards the larger American narrative. As Wyoming is meeting a crossroads of its own, it has never been more important to look at our own communities, identity, and connections with land. Crossroads will engage us in a rich and exciting discussion about our future in Wyoming, while taking a sober and serious look at our past.
