What
John Wayne played more than a cowboy on the silver screen – he was also known for playing a military man in movies such as The Green Berets and Sands of Iwo Jima. As such, the Duke had a deep respect for our nation’s servicemen and women. To honor them on Veterans Day, veterans and active-duty military with ID get free walk-in admission into John Wayne: An American Experience from Saturday, Nov. 9 through on Monday, Nov. 11.
John Wayne: An American Experience is structured to give guests an intimate tour of the life of John Wayne. Starting with his early childhood and career, each room highlights an aspect of Duke’s legacy. Museum patrons have exclusive access to never-before-seen family photos and correspondences that have been thoughtfully curated by the Wayne family to give guests a holistic view of the icon, whose values translate both on and off the silver screen.
The exhibit also features military costumes from some of Wayne’s movies and other military awards and memorabilia.
Veterans and active-duty military with ID get free walk-in admission Nov. 9 – 11. Tickets to the exhibit are $22.95 for adults, $20.95 for seniors 65+ and students with ID, and $17.95 for kids 6-15 at johnwayneae.com
