On August 16, the Mississippi Industrial Heritage Museum will host a program titled “Keep America Beautiful” in partnership with the Keep Meridian/Lauderdale County Beautiful group. This program will feature a short film followed by a presentation from the Keep Meridian/Lauderdale County Beautiful group to share their different programs and initiatives. The free and open to the public program will take place in conjunction with the Smithsonian Institution’s traveling exhibit Water/Ways, which the Mississippi Industrial Heritage Museum will host from July 14 through August 25.
Water/Ways is a traveling exhibit offered by the Museum on Main Street division of the Smithsonian Institution.
