Join us at Michael Waltrip Brewing on Wednesday, August 3, 7:00pm for Trivia Night: Mountain Dew & More (teams should arrive to register in-person at 6:30pm)! This event is complementary programming to the museum’s current special exhibit – “It’ll Tickle Yore Innards!”: A (Hillbilly) History of Mountain Dew – on display through August 7.
The predecessor to bluegrass and country music, old-time music has been passed down for generations. However, the stories of women within the genre are not well-known. Many of these hidden heroines faced fierce opposition against playing music in public or at home, either by their churches or their husbands. This special exhibit gives voice to women who impacted the genre and spotlights the artists who are carrying on these traditions today.
Based on the vast collection of Tom Murphy, this special exhibit offers a window into the careers and impact of numerous well-known musicians such as Roy Acuff, Kitty Wells, Flatt & Scruggs, and more.
Join us for this very special event!
