232. Ben Franklin: In Search of a Better World

September 2, 2011 – January 8, 2012Ben Franklin was a pretty amazing person and I don’t think we have a modern day equivalent which is a shame. Founding father, scientist, diplomat, humorist, philanthropist, entrepreneur, rebellious teen – Benjamin Franklin is one of the remarkable and influential Americans of any generation. Learn more about the many sides of Ben Franklin and discover his impact on your world in this electrifying new exhibit.

Once again Grand Rapids is luck enough to host this traveling exhibit, which is slated for only 5 cities this year. The Geral R. Ford Museum will be hosting the Ben Franklin: In Search of a Better World. Great place to take the kids if they are doing any papers or projects on the Founding Fathers this school year.
