First Friday
August 6
Not your typical car show !
The Swope will be giving folks a first peek at the new public-art project: "Cruising around in Terre Haute".
Sure, Chicago had cows, and we had the colts, but Cars are a really great fit for Terre Haute - just consider
Cars are what made the Crossroads of America, and the Historic National Road was the first "interstate".
Our auto-racing heritage...
The historic roots of Hummer and Jeep trace back to Willys-Overland and the Standard Wheel Company in Terre Haute, way back in 1903!,
If you liked the colts exhibit, you're gonna love the cars!
