Travel Today with Peter Greenberg – Museum Rebroadcast: Denver, NOLA, Philly

This week, Travel Today with Peter Greenberg celebrates the best of America’s museums, with a look back at some of this year’s memorable moments in history as displayed, in many cases on an interactive basis, by many of these museums. First, the radio show broadcasts from the Mile High City, where the Denver Art Museum houses a collection of more than 70,000 works. Then, it’s on to The National WWII Museum in New Orleans, Louisiana. The museum, which sits on a six-acre campus in downtown New Orleans and spreads across five pavilions, has been designated by Congress as the official WWII museum of the United States. Then the radio show airs from one of America’s newest museums—the Museum of the American Revolution in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Philadelphia served as a crucial hub in the Revolutionary War, and is a fitting location for this museum. The museum houses the most impressive collection of artifacts and spans the scope of the war and includes art, manuscripts, printed works, and arms used by all sides in the conflict. There’s all this and more as Travel Today with Peter Greenberg celebrates the best of America’s museums.
