The Ohio River Valley was more than a border. It was a battleground of ideas, identities and ambitions. Join Behringer-Crawford Museum’s Curator of Collections, Jason French, as he presents “Revolution on the Ohio: 60 Years of Conflict and Settlement West of the Alleghenies.”
Spanning from the 1750s through the War of 1812, this program explores the complex and often overlooked stories of the lands along the Ohio River and Northern Kentucky. While European powers and emerging American leadership debated territory and treaties, many of the conflicts in the region played out on a deeply personal level. Often, unsanctioned groups from all sides of the conflict fought very personal, vengeance and vendetta-fueled wars against hated and misunderstood foes and their families.
NKY History Hour programs occur every other Tuesday evening from 6:30-7:30 p.m. and are free to the public.
