The Henry
Ford opened an exciting exhibit entitled With
Liberty and Justice for All. This exhibit
explores
the evolution of American freedom through
four key eras—American Revolution, Civil
War, Suffragette, and Civil Rights. This exhibit
is significant due to its educational opportunities
and marks a major change for The Henry Ford,
as it explores a social innovation rather
than
a technological innovation. It is also the
permanent context for the Rosa Parks bus.
Through the generous support of the Knight
Foundation, The Henry Ford is able to offer
free admission to Detroit families that
are economically-disadvantaged and/or otherwise
would not be able to visit the museum and
see this exhibit. The Henry Ford is partnering
with Mayor’s Time to provide you
this opportunity. If you are interested
in free tickets, please contact Jannice
King
at janking@mayorstime.com.
Note: This is not to be used for school
field trips.
