About the event:

“Get your kicks” through essential road music along with visuals and backstories from one of America’s most iconic highways.

As we follow the highway, we will learn about the rich history, the cultural impacts, the kitschy cool nostalgia, and the must-do travel stops you need to see along the way!

Certain to entertain and inspire reading lists, play-lists and perhaps spark your “bucket list” road trip!

Let’s go!!!
