American Spirits: The Rise and Fall of Prohibition” Exhibit at the Indiana State Museum.

By Melody Schubert @USATM

It's a Wild Wednesday, and we're looking forward to “American Spirits: The Rise and Fall of Prohibition” Exhibit at the Indiana State Museum.
Imagine - It's the 1920′s, and droppers, or hired killers, lit up the streets with Chicago lightning (gunfire). A time when prohibition drove people into speakeasy’s that served up bootleg and white lightning until the copper’s busted the joint.
To celebrate this complex and colorful time in America’s history make plans to attend a special Indiana Spirits party on Friday, Oct. 3 at the Indiana State Museum for their new exhibit American Spirits: The Rise and Fall of Prohibition. Step back in time, and enter a one-night-only speakeasy, where you can sample bourbon and other spirits at the VIP bar. Meet the world’s first female master bourbon taster, Peggy Noe Stevens, formerly with Woodford Reserve, pose for a gangster mug shot, and learn the Charleston and Shimmy as everyone celebrates the roaring ’20s.
