Explore the Heinz History Center: Pittsburgh’s L Explore the Heinz History Center: Pittsburgh’s Lewis & Clark Legacy Did you know the Lewis and Clark Expedition began in Pittsburgh? On August 31, 1803, Meriwether Lewis launched his 55-foot keelboat, marking the start of the Corps of Discovery's historic journey westward. The Heinz History Center, Pennsylvania’s largest history museum and a Smithsonian affiliate, brings this story to life through the exhibit Rediscovering Lewis & Clark: A Journey with the Rooney Family. This unique display intertwines the original expedition's narrative with the Rooney family's modern retracing of the route, offering a compelling perspective on this monumental journey. Located in Pittsburgh's historic Strip District, the museum spans six floors, featuring exhibits on regional innovations, sports history, and cultural heritage. Since Lewis's departure, Pittsburgh has transformed from a frontier town into a hub of industry and innovation, now celebrated for its contributions to technology, healthcare, and education.

In Omaha, Nebraska on June 12th? Join us for the In Omaha, Nebraska on June 12th? Join us for the premiere of Big Medicine: York Outdoors, a compelling new film that elevates the story of York, the only Black member of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. Despite his significant contributions and perseverance during the grueling three-year journey, York’s story has been overshadowed in history. As Captain William Clark’s lifelong servant, he faced the unyielding reality of enslavement while other expedition members were celebrated and rewarded for their achievements. In collaboration with Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail and NEW Multimedia, Big Medicine:York Outdoors follows a group of Black adventurers on a transformative four-day river journey along the Upper Missouri River Breaks National Monument in Montana. This expedition retraces the path of the original Corps of Discovery while connecting York’s legacy to the joy, healing, and empowerment that the great outdoors can provide. Location: 2423 North 24th Street, Omaha, NE 68110 Start Date: June 12, 2025 Start Time: 6:00 pm Watch the trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KlRk6bubaw4 More: https://www.nps.gov/articles/000/big-medicine-the-york-project.htm

Explore Bellefontaine Cemetery: A Resting Place of Explore Bellefontaine Cemetery: A Resting Place of Legends Tucked away in St. Louis, Bellefontaine Cemetery is a peaceful and historic resting place with deep ties to the Lewis and Clark Expedition. Most notably, it’s where explorer William Clark is buried. A towering 35-foot granite obelisk, erected in 1904, marks his grave. Founded in 1849, Bellefontaine became the final resting place for many of St. Louis’s most influential figures. In addition to Clark, you’ll find graves of Adolphus Busch (Anheuser-Busch co-founder), poet Sara Teasdale, author William S. Burroughs, and Luther Ely Smith, who helped inspire the Gateway Arch. The cemetery spans over 300 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, with winding roads, historic monuments, and stunning trees. Though Clark died in 1838, his grave was moved here in the 1850s, making Bellefontaine a significant site for anyone interested in the legacy of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. The cemetery is open daily from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM and offers public tours, walking paths, and special events year-round. A visit to Bellefontaine isn’t just a walk through a cemetery - it’s a journey through the stories of the people who shaped early American history. All photos courtesy of Cait Clark.
