SUMMARY:Drove(s)-An Art Exhibit About The Automobile -Duluth, GA
DESCRIPTION:New Art Exhibition Explores Impact of Automobiles on Cultu
 re and Environment\n \nThe Southeastern Railway Museum is pleased to 
 present Drove(s), an art exhibition that takes a look at the culture
  of automobiles, our dependence on them, and their environmental impac
 t.\n \nThe culture of automobiles starts with America's early love af
 fair with cars and the freedom that they promised. Frequent design cha
 nges and new technologies created a sense of disposability and a desir
 e for the newest model. Demand throughout the 20th century helped dri
 ve the American economy but also led to an overabundance of automobile
 s and serious environmental impacts.\n \nThe automobile and the freed
 om it promised led to dramatic changes in American cities. Suburban sp
 rawl now stretches for many miles around every urban center with the c
 ar being the only practical means of transport. Too often, public tran
 sportation is of little help in an environment designed and built with
  the automobile in mind, while the promise of freedom has given way to
  massive traffic jams and a daily drudgery of commuting along overcrow
 ded highways.\n \nCan this dependence on the automobile and fossil fu
 els be sustained? How do we change our environments to become friendli
 er to pedestrians and mass transit while maintaining the freedom of mo
 vement to which we have grown accustomed?\n \nThese are the issues an
 d questions raised by this month's exhibition at the museum. Housed in
  a newly restored 1871 train depot that once sheltered passengers wait
 ing for their train, the depot itself is as much a part of the exhibit
  as the art hanging on its walls.\n \nThe exhibition will open to the
  public Thursday, January 12 and run through Saturday, February 11. At
  this time of year, the museum is open Thursday through Saturday, 10 
 a.m. to 5 p.m.\n\nFor more information visit https://www.southeastwhe
