Discover the inspiring life of George Washington Carver at the National Museum in Diamond, Missouri, where he was born into slavery. He later became a renowned educator and agricultural scientist at the Tuskegee Institute, and became one of America’s most influential figures. The day includes the museum, an orientation film, and a hands-on activity in the peanut lab where Carver’s agricultural innovations come to life.The next stop is at the “World’s Largest Small Electric Appliance Museum,” which is also located in Diamond. It is a multi-room collection of over 7,000 vintage machines ranging from toasters to coffee pots, hot dog roasters, waffle irons, and hair dryers, just to name a few. It was the result of one man’s fascination with the historic revolution of electrified kitchen and household goods that we now think of as commonplace. Attendees may have the privilege of a guided tour by the owner, who alone knows the history and stories that go along with the incredible collection.Lunch at the museum is included. Please note: individuals with peanut allergies should exercise caution during the lab activity at the Carver Museum. Meeting location and other information will be sent to participants upon registration. Activity Level:

"Finding Our Way | February 5 - April 26, 2026The moment of arrival—what we carry when we seek sanctuary, transitions, and the crossing into safety. Sandra Spotts, artist. Jay Lane, artist. Familiar images made from various materials and objects, found and recycled, placed in a format of controlled chaos, is at this point in my journey, the medium of choice for the“Finding Our Way” exhibit at Gotahold Brewing. I see society as satirical subject matter that exists in a surrealistic landscape of twisted perspective that is filled to the fences with social ironies. And yet, I still have to maintain my sense of humor about what has been and what will be with the activities du jour based on fear, war, greed, and hate. With this sense also comes my interpretations, expressed visually based on myexperiences, feelings, and health, from finding my way as an artist. I hope these pieces give you a sense of curiosity that you continue to carry with you while you are finding your way through all of this we humans call life."
