X-WR-CALDESC:“Crossroads: Change in Rural America\,” offers small towns a c
 hance to look at their own paths to highlight the changes that affected th
 eir fortunes over the past century. The exhibition will prompt discussions
  about what happened when America’s rural population became a minority of 
 the country’s population and the ripple effects that occurred. The exhibit
  covers themes such as: Identity\, Land\, Community\, Persistence and Mana
 ging Change with photographs\, hands-on activities\, and audio and video c
 lips provided by the Smithsonian in the “Crossroads” exhibition to tell th
 e history and culture of local rural life in Kansas and spark conversation
 s about our state’s future. \n\nA local companion exhibit will be housed i
 n the Mary L. Martin Art Gallery. “Allen County: From Trails to Rails to H
 ighway and Back\,” will take you on a journey with a fictitious family who
  found their way into the South East Kansas territory in 1856. The histori
 cal fiction is told by way of the diary writings of Jerimiah Wilson and hi
 s subsequent children in the later years. Working with the local newspaper
  and the writings of local historian\, Larry Manes\, this diary will be pr
 inted in the format of a special newspaper section in the proceeding weeks
  of the exhibit opening\, along with extra prints to be available at the e
 xhibition. The exhibition layout will be in the chronological order of the
  diary. Certain passages highlighted in the printing will be displayed on 
 the walls with surrounding supportive photographs\, articles\, and artifac
 ts. The diary writings take patrons through the many crossroads experience
 d throughout Allen County’s history and will invite the viewing patron to 
 imagine what will be the next chapter for the Wilson family as the next ge
 nerations come to their crossroads.
