Smithsonian exhibit is coming to Huron Spark! Places of Innovation, a traveling exhibition from the Smithsonian Institute, dives into innovation and invention happening in rural America. In small towns across America, people are creating new products, taking risks, meeting challenges together, and seizing upon exciting opportunities that change local life and sometimes reach far beyond.
Spark! features stories from over 30 rural communities across the nation that reveal the dynamic relationship between place and creativity. Technical, social, cultural, artistic, or a combination of all of these—every innovation is as unique as each community.
Explore the ingenuity and tenacity of rural Americans in Spark! Places of Innovation.
