The Eras Exhibit: 250 Years of First Ladies' Progress and Power
Celebrate 250 Years of First Ladies Progress and Power with us!
From the nation’s earliest days to the modern era, First Ladies have shaped American history through advocacy, diplomacy, and cultural influence. The Eras Exhibit will take visitors on an immersive journey through the evolving role of these women across the many eras of the American historical timeline, showcasing how they have redefined leadership, championed social causes, and influenced national conversations.
The centerpiece of the Character exhibit will be a large footprint devoted to the Walter Payton Man of the Year Award, the most coveted individual honor in the National Football League!
The display will feature an acknowledgement of past winners, several of whom are enshrined in Canton, along with artifacts related to WALTER PAYTON, PEYTON MANNING, JASON TAYLOR and LaDAINIAN TOMLINSON!
Guests will be provided the opportunity to learn more about 21 points of interest to connect with character!
Shattered Glass: The Women Who Elevated American Art is an original exhibition by CMA showcasing American female artists from the past 250 years who made a lasting impact on the art world!
The artists in the exhibit have fought for their right to create art alongside male contemporaries and while doing so, revolutionized the field! This exhibit shines a light on these remarkable artists and their enormous contributions!
