Approximately 100 original objects associated with George Washington – including the only surviving complete set of his famous dentures – will be on display at Gilcrease Museum when Discover the Real George Washington: New Views from Mount Vernon opens on June 24, 2012. The exhibition, which runs through Sept. 23, 2012, goes beyond the iconic image on the dollar bill to reveal the real George Washington as not only a general and president but as a young land surveyor, experimental farmer, and savvy entrepreneur. Washington's views on religion and slavery, and the influence of his wife, Martha, are also explored in this exhibition which features life-size figures of Washington developed through a cutting-edge forensic investigation, engaging videos, original artifacts, intricate three-dimensional architectural models, and interactive displays.
