About the event
From October 11 through November 23, the Accokeek Foundation will host “Spark! Places of Innovation,” part of the Smithsonian’s Museums on Main Street program. This national traveling exhibition showcases stories from more than 30 rural communities across the nation, exploring how creativity and innovation are rooted in place—from small industries to technological advances. Through photographs, hands-on interactives, objects and videos, “Spark!” reveals the leaders, challenges, successes and future of innovation in each featured town. The exhibit will be free and open to the public from 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM, Wednesdays through Sundays.
