The event is designed like a living museum where you are free to travel and meet the historical figures and participate in a craft or STEM project based on the profession and achievements of each Hero. You can listen to the hero’s personal story of triumph, perseverance, and success.
There will be bull riding, horse hop races, horseshoe painting, panning for gemstones and PomPom Canons. Learn about how African Americans shaped the West with bravery and persistence.
Also, learn about Black Wall Street and enjoy a Cash Tornado Booth and a bounce house.
