Journey Stories is a Museum on Main Street project organized by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service and brought to us by our state humanities council funded by the United States Congress. This unique exhibit tells the story of courage, new beginnings, adventure, fun and freedom that has happened in American since it was discovered. Many journeys have taken place from the journeys of the first settlers, gold strike, different modes of travel, vacations, freedom and much more.

Granville has been chosen to host this exhibit based on its rich Tennessee history as it was a riverboat town on the Cumberland River with a great river history, World War II Maneuvers, and much more. Each of us has a powerful journey story deep in our personal heritage. It may be a story of a family uprooting itself in order to stay together, or of sons and daughters moving to another land, or of a distant ancestor coming to America. Immigration and travel over roads, rails, rivers, trails and skyways shaped America society. Journey Stories examines how transportation and migration helped build our nation, how it has changed us, and how our mobile world looked to travelers along the way.

      Each of us has a powerful journey story deep inside in our personal heritage. It may a story of a family uprooting in order to stay together, or of a son or daughter moving to another land, or a distant ancestor coming to America. Do you take your right to travel for granted? Then you need to see this exhibit!!! Collapse
