Austin Peay State University’s Public History students are stepping out of the classroom and into the streets of Clarksville to share their semester’s work through a series of engaging Downtown Walking Tours. Presented in partnership with the Customs House Museum & Cultural Center, these free tours begin Thursday, April 24 and continue select dates through Saturday, May 3.
Under the guidance of Dr. Cate LiaBraaten, students have spent the semester researching local history. These walking tours mark their debut as presenters and represent the culmination of their work. Topics range from the city’s economic shifts and natural disasters to influential women, Black history, and the tobacco trade. All tours begin at the Customs House Museum and vary in time and subject.
