Route 66: Hiding in Plain Sight (2019 Exhibition Promo)

Route 66 has a special resonance in Santa Monica history, as the road ends at the intersection of Lincoln and Olympic Boulevards. Our exhibition explores the legacy of “the end of the trail” in Santa Monica, as well as the role that famous local figures like Will Rogers played in promoting Route 66. To illustrate the Route’s history, the exhibition features artifacts such as early driving guides, iconic signage and ephemera, and historic photographs from our Santa Monica History Museum Collection.

Exhibition: June 29, 2019 through October 19, 2019
