SUMMARY:D-Day\, June 6\, 1944: The Memory Lives On
DESCRIPTION:D-Day\, June 6\, 1944: The Memory Lives On\nMay 18\, 2024 – April 27\, 2025 \nNormandy\, France will forever be marked by the June 6\, 1944\, D-Day Landings and the Battle of Normandy that led to the liberation of France and Europe.  2024 will mark the 80th Anniversary of this historic event. The Upcountry History Museum\, in its commitment to collecting\, preserving\, and disseminating the Upstate’s local history and to connecting it to national and international history\, will honor this momentous occasion with a special exhibition. \nJune 6\, 1944: More than 156\,000 Allied troops landed on the beaches of Normandy\, France\, as part of the largest seaborne invasion in history.  Known as “D-Day\,” the name and date loom large in the memory of WWII.  D-Day put the Allies on a decisive path toward victory.  Beginning with the Normandy beaches\, they pushed back the Axis forces until Germany was forced to surrender less than a year later.  Their achievements were not accomplished without tremendous sacrifice\, as the Normandy invasion resulted in over 6\,000 American casualties. \nThe Upcountry History Museum\, in partnership with the Naval History and Heritage Command\, Washington\, DC\, will honor the individuals without whom D-Day would not have been a success: soldiers and sailors\, doctors and nurses\, engineers and pilots\, enlisted men and officers\, seasoned fighters and those who had never been in combat. These veterans stormed the beaches\, directed the landings\, sailed or flew in support of the invasion\, parachuted or piloted gliders into France\, and arrived in the days after June 6\, to continue the perilous work of pushing back and defeating the German Army. \nArtifacts\, uniforms\, archival materials\, ephemera\, art and more will share this remarkable moment in history and provide answers to What is D-Day? How do you get an army across the English Channel and into France when your enemy is well armed\, well trained\, and expecting you? How did a single day and its aftermath ultimately liberate Western Europe\, defeat Nazi Germany and end the Second World War? \nThe exhibition will include the contributions and sacrifices of Upstate South Carolinians\, many of whom were in their teens\, to commemorate their participation in the largest invasion ever assembled and to ensure that “the memory lives on.” \n  \n  \nSupport provided by \n  \n                      \n

SUMMARY:Clyde Butcher's America the Beautiful
DESCRIPTION:Clyde Butcher’s America the Beautiful\nFebruary 15\, 2025 – May 25\, 2025  \n  \n“The earth is a magnificent piece of art… As a photographer\, I am only sharing what I witness.”\n– Clyde Butcher \nAcclaimed photographer Clyde Butcher has spent more than 50 years capturing some of America’s most unique and beautiful landscapes\, from the Redwood forests of California to the Everglade swamps of Florida. Butcher majestically captures the public natural lands set aside by the Federal and State governments for the enjoyment\, education\, and inspiration of this and future generations. \nAs one of the most renowned photographers of our time\, Clyde Butcher has dedicated his life to capturing the natural beauty of the world around us.  The exhibit showcases his unparalleled talent and features a stunning collection of his best work from his illustrious career. \nButcher’s images of these treasured landscapes\, including the Great Smoky Mountains\, document the changing environment\, capturing what is there today and encouraging us to enjoy the beauty of nature.  His images speak for countless diverse places of wilderness and respite found throughout all of America\, allowing us an appreciation of our land. \nAmerica the Beautiful includes 43 large-scale\, black and white photographs of the American landscape\, spanning beautiful sites across the United States.  Butcher’s views include some of the same locations shot by the photographer Ansel Adams\, demonstrating the unique light and clarity that his artistic vision brings to those scenes. \nThe beauty of Butcher’s photographs is further emphasized by the epic size of his works.  The exceptional size of his compositions – the largest is 5 by 8.5 feet – allows viewers to experience the beauty of each site from an almost first–hand perspective. \nButcher’s unique technique enables him to capture a breathtaking amount of detail within his images. He shoots with an 8 x 10 wooden large-format view camera from the 1940s\, creating an extraordinary depth of field through a synthesis of wide-angled lenses and a small lens opening.  His large negatives\, combined with orange and blue filters and a longer-than-average exposure time – up to ten minutes – allow for clarity and incredible detail within his compositions. \nClyde Butcher: America the Beautiful showcases Butcher’s skill in capturing the raw beauty of the United States most precious natural landscapes\, while also highlighting his passion for preserving these spaces for generations to come. \n  \nSupport provided by \n             \n

SUMMARY:Beautification: The Environmental Legacy of Lady Bird Johnson
DESCRIPTION:Beautification: The Environmental Legacy of Lady Bird Johnson\nMarch 15\, 2025 – September 7\, 2025  \nCurated and produced by the LBJ Presidential Library\, Austin\, Texas\, Beautification: The Environmental Legacy of Lady Bird Johnson\, focuses on the life and legacy of Lady Bird Johnson\, wife of the 36th President of the United States\, Lyndon Baines Johnson. The Upcountry History Museum\, Greenville\, SC\, will be the exhibit’s first stop on its limited national tour. \nThe former first lady is most often associated with promoting environmental conservation and the wildflowers that brighten the country’s landscape. This exhibition guides visitors through a comprehensive story of Mrs. Johnson’s life\, providing more context to her education\, family\, campaign efforts\, acumen as a businesswoman\, leadership in education and environmental conservation\, and her role as a philanthropist. \nThroughout her time in the White House\, Lady Bird fought to make American cities more beautiful by planting flowers or adding park benches and by removing billboards and junkyards from the nation’s highways. Her efforts in these areas pushed her further into the political arena\, more than any First Lady before her. Even Eleanor Roosevelt\, Lady Bird’s declared role model\, had not sat in on a legislative strategy session or been given assignments to influence Congressional votes. Lyndon Johnson supported Lady Bird’s efforts\, publicly promoting her projects in his State of the Union speeches and during Cabinet meetings. \nBeautification: The Environmental Legacy of Lady Bird Johnson will guide visitors through a comprehensive story of Mrs. Johnson’s life\, from childhood through her post-White House years. Visitors will be immersed in the life and legacy of Lady Bird Johnson on loan from the LBJ Presidential Library and the Johnsons daughters Lynda Bird Johnson Robb and Luci Baines Johnson include items from Whistle Stop campaign tours\, gowns from White House galas\, mementos from beautification projects; original art from The Lorax\, created by Dr. Seuss; along with letters\, photographs\, oral histories\, home movies\, and artifacts – the majority of which have never been shared with the public. \n  \nSupport provided by \n           \nJanis Bandelin & Bill Fitzpatrick            Mountain Laurel Garden Club of Travelers Rest \n

SUMMARY:Lunchbox Learning
DESCRIPTION:Retracing the Keowee Trail: A Deep Map of the Cherokee Path in the History of the Carolinas \nPresented by Stuart Taylor  \nIn Retracing the Keowee Trail\, Stuart Taylor tells the story of the Cherokee Path that connected the low country of colonial Carolina with the mountain homeland of the Cherokee Nation. The Keowee Trail was a busy trading route for a burgeoning deerskin trade. Along this same path\, epidemic disease made its way inexorably from the colony toward Cherokee society\, reducing their population by more than half. Along this path\, warfare was waged in both directions\, by Cherokee war parties determined to defend their homeland and by settlers like the author’s Scots Irish ancestors\, evermore hungry for land. That ancestral history is an entry point into this larger narrative. A “deep map” approach to the Keowee Trail will hold together multiple lines of perspective\, including memoir\, family history\, migration patterns\, religious history\, Indigenous wisdom\, trauma theory\, ghost stories\, mythology\, archeology\, geography\, the watersheds\, and the flora and fauna of the Southern Appalachians. \n \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLunchbox Learning is generously sponsored by:

A child of East Texas\, she spent many of her days outdoors. The sense of place that came from being close to the land never left her. She would eventually carry that with her to the White House. \nThe Beautification Act of 1965 known as “Lady Bird’s Bill\,” is a well-known result of her tireless work. Often associated only with wildflowers\, Lady Bird Johnson emphasized that “beautification” meant much more. It meant clean water\, clean air\, clean roadsides\, and preservation of landmarks\, parks\, and wilderness areas. \nHer commitment to the natural world resulted in a national awareness not seen prior to her time as first lady\, and it served as a catalyst for the modern environmental movement. Lady Bird Johnson demonstrated that through the activism of one person great change can happen. \n“Where flowers bloom\, so does hope”. \n  \n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSponsored By:\n\n  \n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n \nAntique Auto Club of America\nSouth Carolina Region \n  \n

SUMMARY:Privies\, Pipes\, and Progress...
DESCRIPTION:Privies\, Pipes\, and Progress…\nMay 10\, 2025 – October 5\, 2026 \n  \nRenewable Water Resources Celebrates 100 Years of Cleaning Water \nNovember 1\, 1928\, ushered in a new era for the Upcountry as the then Greater Greenville Sewer District began operations at the recently completed Mauldin Road treatment plant. The realization of this “modern sewerage system” in the “first city in the South to be completely sewered” brought with it expectations\, opportunities\, and progress for the 20th century. \nOver the next few decades\, upgrades and advanced improvements were made to keep the utility on mission for cleaning water and protecting public health\, while additional facilities were built to help meet the demands of a growing region. As the service area and functions expanded\, the utility was renamed Greenville County Sewer Authority in 1968\, and by 1969\, S.C. Act 688 established it as the primary wastewater treatment provider in the Greenville area. \nThe succeeding years brought increased environmental responsibilities\, escalating infrastructure demands\, as well as an anticipated expansion in scope of responsibility for surrounding counties. So\, the General Assembly authorized S.C. Act 1415 in 1974 to rename the utility to Western Carolina Regional Sewer Authority (WCRSA). \nFor the next 35 years\, WCRSA made pioneering and groundbreaking advancements in numerous areas of wastewater treatment\, many of which positioned the utility as the definitive leader at the state and national levels. \nBy the early 2000s\, the utility’s vision had evolved to encompass a more thorough commitment to enhancing the quality of life for its communities by transforming wastewater into a clean\, fresh\, renewable resource. State legislators agreed and by approval of Act 102 in 2009\, the name became Renewable Water Resources (ReWa). \nOver the past 100 years\, ReWa has established itself as an organization dedicated to protecting Upstate waterways\, supporting public health\, and promoting a cleaner environment. It has also become a steadfast community partner motivated to lead\, engage\, and serve. \nThis exhibition takes visitors on a journey through ReWa’s 100 years and features interactive displays\, archived materials from early days of operations\, photo collages highlighting the decades\, and more. \n  \nSupport provided by \n         \n

SUMMARY:Dinosaurs: Land of Fire and Ice
DESCRIPTION:Dinosaurs: Land of Fire and Ice\nMay 24\, 2025 – September 21\, 2025  \n  \nDinosaurs will roar into Upstate South Carolina\, when the Upcountry History Museum presents Dinosaurs: Land of Fire and Ice. \nCrossing the threshold of this special exhibition means traveling back in time to explore the Age of the Dinosaurs.  As visitors move through the exhibit they encounter unfamiliar landscapes\, touchable dinosaurs of all shapes and sizes\, and opportunities to investigate clues about what the dinosaurs left behind.  The exhibit builds on the popular fascination with dinosaurs and includes science\, history\, and literacy based activities to challenge all ages. \nDinosaurs: Land of Fire and Ice\, designed for children ages 3-10\, is the first child-centered exhibit dedicated to expanding the understanding of dinosaur habitat and range. The bilingual (Spanish and English) exhibit features three distinct sections that build on a child’s innate curiosity about dinosaurs: Land of Fire (a warm dinosaur habitat)\, Land of Ice (a cold dinosaur habitat)\, and a Field Research Station (complete with a Big Dig experience). \nThe steamy Land of Fire – present day Montana – introduces visitors to the Triceratops\, T-Rex\, and the dinosaurs who called this environment home.  Children can circle the land in insect costumes\, buzz through a volcano with oozing lava\, work through a swampy bog\, and identify an ecosystem of animals and plants. \nNo coats are needed for a trip across the Land of Ice where visitors meet the dinosaurs who made their homes in the cold climate of present day Alaska.  Activities include exploring an icy cave filled with northern lights effects\, breezing down an icy slide\, and creating a Cretaceous food chain in an environment based on cold dinosaur habitats 70 million years ago. \nIn the hands-on Field Research Station children and their caregivers don goggles and research vests\, as they uncover dinosaur bones in a dig station and examine fossils to identify dinosaurs. \nThis immersive exhibit includes sculpted\, touchable dinosaurs that feature the most recent scientific findings about the colors\, textures and structural form of the dinosaurs.  Designed to spark children’s interest in science and history\, the exhibit will immerse visitors in meaningful science experiences and activities that use scientific thinking skills; focus on history\, natural history\, and paleontology; and provide opportunities to build literacy and vocabulary skills through interactive activities. \n  \nSupport provided by \n                   \n         \n

SUMMARY:Avengers: Endgame – The Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Avengers: Endgame — The Exhibition\nJune 7\, 2025 – January 18\, 2026 \n“In the comic books and the movies\, the story is always the most important element.”\n– Stan Lee\, Writer\, Editor\, Comic Book Creator \n  \nFor over 85 years\, creating independent yet deeply connected stories has been the foundation of the Marvel Universe. Conceived from a simple idea of strange tales and journeys in 1939 with the publication of Marvel Comics #1\, Marvel began to create a world with visual and cultural impact that has continued to influence readers and viewers today. \nAs the comic book industry gained momentum in the 1930s\, Stan Lee\, an aspiring writer\, joined Timely Comics\, the forerunner to Marvel Comics. In 1940\, Timely introduced characters such as Captain America\, Toro\, the Whizzer\, and even Miss America\, who with the Human Torch\, founded the Invaders\, dedicated to combating Nazi forces in Europe. Following the war\, the group was renamed the All-Winners Squad with the mission to fight crime in the U.S. \nOver the next two decades\, new characters in different genres expanded the growing repertoire of stories which furthered the narratives of heroes and villains. By the 1960s\, Marvel had risen in popularity. Lee and artist Jack Kirby created the company’s first family with The Fantastic Four in 1961\, followed in 1962 with Spider-Man\, well Daredevil\, Nick Fury\, Incredible Hulk\, and the X-Men. \nIn 1963 Marvel created a team of superheroes including Captain America\, Iron Man\, Black Widow\, Thor\, Hawkeye\, Hulk\, and Black Panther. Named The Avengers\, their mission was to stand as Earth’s first line of defense against the most powerful threats in the universe. \nBy 2012\, movies and television shows were the outlets for Marvel Universe characters\, the parent company became Marvel Cinematic Universe. The Avengers continued to provide audiences with thrilling storylines based on their mission as seen in 2012\, 2015\, and 2018 films. \nAvengers: Endgame debuted in theaters in 2019 and became the highest-grossing film of all time that year. In partnership with The Walt Disney Company’s Marvel Studios and private collectors\, the Upcountry History Museum will present an exclusive 2000 square foot exhibition featuring an extraordinary display of original costumes\, props\, and memorabilia showcasing the film’s messages of teamwork\, courage\, and perseverance. \nThe first exhibition of its kind in the United States\, the project invites visitors of all ages to traverse the Marvel Universe. This once-in-a lifetime experience will explore the fourth installment in the Avengers saga and is the culmination of 22 interconnected Marvel films and the climax of a journey. The exhibit’s design and messaging will emulate Avengers: Endgame’s principles of friendship\, teamwork\, and setting aside differences to overcome impossible obstacles. \n  \nSupport provided by \n           \n
