Fan favorite 公共着陆 transports you back in time at Cincinnati Museum Center
Walk the cobblestone streets of the mid-1800s century waterfront starting Nov 17
CINCINNATI – Step back in time and onto the reimagined 公共着陆 as Cincinnati Museum Center (CMC) reopens the 辛辛那提历史博物馆 11月17日的最爱.
After a two-and-a-half year closure to accommodate the historic restoration of 结合终端, the 辛辛那提历史博物馆 is reopening with the first phase of permanent exhibits – the 公共着陆. 的 exhibit is a fully immersive experience that transports you back in time to the mid-19th century, to the creak of paddle wheels on the river 和 clip-clop of horse hooves on the cobblestones, the calls of dockworkers and street vendors 和 clank and slosh of a German beer hall.
Guests can wander into five historic shops and peek into the lives of the men and women who drove the economy of a blossoming Midwestern city. 满足J.P. 球, a free black portrait photographer who owned a renowned photography studio that has been recreated in the 公共着陆, telling his remarkable story and inviting you to take a vintage selfie. Practice the careful task of typesetting in the in the print shop and pick the perfect fabric for a suit or dress in the dressmaker’s shop. Connect with friends and family over a game of checkers in the beer hall, and peruse the wares at Fifth Street Market to learn the culinary history of “Porkopolis.”
Climb aboard the Queen of the West steamboat and learn how steam power drove the city’s economy, transporting goods and travelers up and down the Ohio River. 搜寻货舱里的货物, and read accounts of passengers arriving into Cincinnati for the first time. Stroll down the gangplank onto the 公共着陆 and take a peek into the trunks and luggage of immigrants who carried their lives in a suitcase to the Western frontier and in turn shaped who we are as a city today. What can you learn from the contents of their luggage? 他们是谁?? 是什么把他们吸引到辛辛那提来的? What did they bring and what might you bring if you were moving your life to a new place?
而 公共着陆 will feel familiar to guests who have come to love it over the years, 新店面, a new soundscape and new interactive activities bring it to life in fresh, 动态的新方式. 的 city comes alive with the calls of merchants and friends, the squeal of a shadow herd of pigs being unloaded from the steamboat 和 impassioned rhetoric of politicians speaking out against slavery, advocating for temperance and more in historic speeches drawn from CMC’s 历史图书馆及档案馆.
的 公共着陆 is the first of several new exhibits to open in the 辛辛那提历史博物馆. Additional exhibits will open in phases over the next several years.
的 公共着陆 has been made possible through the generosity and support of the 俄亥俄州人文委员会 和 比尔·马斯特基金会. 的 明尼苏达科学博物馆, in partnership with CMC, helped develop and fabricate the content for the exhibit.
