Motorcycle Memories, which was first presented in 2008, features vintage motorcycles and photographs exploring the “art of the motorcycle” in Fort Smith and the region from the 1940’s through present day.   Fort Smith has an historical association with motorcycle culture. Learn about the people and places that places that put the region on the map for motorcyclists.  Join the museum on Saturday, June 27 at 11:00 a. m. for refreshments and a program on local and regional motorcycle history during the Fort Smith Riverfront Blues Festival.

Motorcycle Memories is designed to unite the “art of the motorcycle” with the generation of Americans that enjoy a lifestyle peculiar to the American mainstream.  The exhibit will strive to educate future generations about a fascinating spectrum of Americana.   Motorcycle Memories will be on exhibit through August 30, 2015.

This project is supported in part by a grant from the Arkansas Humanities council and the National Endowment for the Humanities.
