Learn about how the Truman property was first established, learn the details behind Mrs. Truman’s will, the probate period, the involvement of the National Archives, and the legislative process that led to the park’s codification. Also, get a sneak peek on the future of the park and the newly proposed visitor’s center. Event held at the Truman Ticketing Office and Visitor's Center, 223 North Main Street.
