Tuesday Talk at Branson Centennial Museum features author Howard Cavner

First-time author Howard Cavner was the featured speaker on Tuesday, July 16, at the Branson Centennial Museum’s Tuesday Talk. Cavner’s topic was stories of Branson in the ‘60s from his first book 'Ozark Saints." In these stories about people and one dog, you will find values and tales that influenced Howard while growing up. Cavner, who considers himself a bona fide hillbilly and blessed to have lived his childhood and young adult years in Branson, is proud of his Ozarks roots.

Cavner shared several stories of life in the ‘60s including 35-cent movies at the Owen Theater and opening day at Silver Dollar City.

Tuesday Talks are on the third Tuesday of the month, 12:30 p.m., at Branson Centennial Museum, 120 S. Commercial Street. The monthly talks are planned and hosted by the Branson Centennial Museum and the White River Historical Society—preserving the cultural history of this area. Join us at wrvhs.org.
