Vermont’s Hidden History Revealed

Vermont’s past isn’t just about independence—it’s messy, complex, and full of contradictions. The Vermont Historical Society’s new “50 for 250” exhibit dives into 250 years of state history through 50 powerful artifacts, from a 1877 cream separator to a 1990s anti-big-box bumper sticker, a Civil War bullet cane, and even a Ku Klux Klan hood. It spotlights both triumphs and struggles, including labor strikes, same-sex marriage milestones, and the last native cougar in Vermont. Opening July 3rd in Montpelier, the exhibit invites visitors to rethink Vermont’s story—and share their own. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
