St. Louis-born sculptor Richard V. Greeves (1935-2023) was inspired by the Lewis & Clark Expedition to honor the Native people who were at the center of the journey. Beginning with an evening reception, we will showcase a dozen of his bronze busts and other figures depicting the people of the west.
Hawken Classic Rifle Weekend, May 17-19, Lewis & Clark Boat House and Museum
The Hawken Classic, presented by the Gemmer Muzzleloader Association, will take history forward a few decades, to the era of the Mountain Man and the age of the St. Louis-made Hawken rifle. See (and handle) historic weapons, witness primitive skills demonstrations, view one-of a-kind artifacts and learn about America’s frontier life from re-enactors and enthusiasts at this major gathering of history buffs and collectors.
