The STL Great Debates

The Saint Louis Great Debates | Missouri History Museum

There's another great opportunity coming to the Missouri History Museum in the upcoming week: the Saint Louis Great Debates. This debate will focus on the region's economic development. There will be several speakers, and then there will be a moderated discussion following the speakers' presentation. This is great timing in terms of coinciding with the Solutions Project. Check out the above link for more information, and to secure your spot. It's best to make a reservation for this event, as the last debate was filled to capacity.

The St. Louis Great Debates will be at the History Museum on Tuesday, January 25, at 7:00 p.m. The doors open at 6:30 p.m.
