In the back corner of the Prohibition Pig bar area is a new exhibit dedicated to the prohibition and temperance movements in American history. Curated and designed by Whitney Aldrich, of Axel's Gallery and Frame Shop, the display was first envisioned by Pro Pig general manager Jon Luciano.


Aldrich and Luciano consulted with Skip Flanders and Cheryl Casey from the historical society to select relevant items from the collection that could be digitally reproduced for framing and display.
