Event Website

Discover how Route 66 grew from dusty trails into one of America’s most legendary highways at this Brown Bag Lunch & Learn program.

Chief Curatorial Officer David Davis will introduce the newest exhibition, Route 66: From Trails to Truck Stops, exploring how the story of the American West is rooted in movement—across trails, roads, and eventually the highways that shaped modern travel. The program connects Route 66 road culture to the broader Western experience, its iconography, and its lasting influence on American popular culture.

Davis will be joined by authors Jim Ross and Shellee Graham, co-authors of Route 66: The First 100 Years. Together, they’ll share stories of the events, people, and places that helped transform Route 66 into a national legend. A book signing will follow the presentation.

Guests are welcome to bring their own lunch or purchase one at The Museum Grill.

$5 per person | Free for Museum members
