Kick off your weekend at the Missouri History Museum in Forest Park! Each Thursday Night at the Museum will be the most fun, engaging, uplifting, thought-provoking, perspective-shaping night of your week. And there are drinks. Join us starting at 5:30pm for pop-up activities, such as brief tours, games, and performances. The main stage comes to life at 6:30pm, light appetizers and drinks are available for purchase until 7:00pm, and the Museum’s exhibits and shop are open until 8:00pm for you to explore!

LIVING LEGENDS: HEROES OF THE MILLENNIUM | THURSDAY, AUGUST 24 | 5:30–8:00PM
Join our interactive program adapted from a poetry book co-written by African American sisters Aja La’Starr Owens and Adrienne Draper. Their poetry will be illustrated through theatre, music, dance, art, and film to capture the depths of the Black experience through their eyes. Living Legends will pay homage to prominent Black men in the St. Louis community and encourage participants to celebrate their own family history—and consider the role they’re playing in creating and actively living out their legacy.

African American History Initiative (AAHI) programming is presented by Wells Fargo.
