Our Shot: Kentucky's Revolutionary Story
Advertisement
Before borders. Before 1792. ⏳ Kentucky took its shot. 💥
Before Kentucky was a state, it was a battleground of bold ideas, dangerous frontiers, and revolutionary ambition. Long before statehood, the future of the frontier—and the nation—was being shaped right here. From Daniel Boone to Aaron Burr, from the settlers at Blue Licks to the everyday men and women whose names rarely make the textbooks, Kentucky’s story is woven into America’s fight for independence.
Join us as the Kentucky Historical Society brings history off the page and into our community through Kentucky History on the Road. In this engaging lecture and Q&A, a museum educator will uncover the dramatic, surprising, and often overlooked stories that reveal how Kentucky helped shape a nation.

A Smithsonian Affiliate and fully accredited by the American Alliance of Museums, KHS brings expert museum educators across the Commonwealth through programs like Kentucky History on the Road, delivering dynamic presentations that make the past feel present.
For ages 12 and up. Just drop in!
Seating will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.
