Walk a Mile in These Shoes — the Stories They Tell

Museum visitors will be able to have a hands-on, feet-in, multimedia experience that explores many aspects of footwear and their history. Shoes are not just protection for our feet; they flaunt an infinite array of styles, sizes and materials. This exhibit takes a look at traditional footwear from around the world, styles from decades past, and the shoes of famous people. From 10,000-year-old sagebrush bark sandals to stilettos to a rock star's boots -- shoes always make a statement. (Free admission.)

If the Shoe Fits — Kids Contemplate Shoes

Kids get into the act -- creating artwork that tells the story of their own shoes. This companion exhibit features contour line drawings and writing about shoes that are significant to the students.
