Day 1 - Rhythm of the Prairie & Party Under the Stars Arrive to Tulsa and depart for the a Woody Guthrie Center. Woody Guthrie (1912 - 1967) was one of America ’ s greatest folksingers and most influential songwriters. Woody ’ s songs celebrate the beauty and bounty of America and seek the truth about our country and its people. He turned complex ideas about democracy, human rights, and economic equality into simple songs that all Americans could embrace such as “ This Land is Your Land ”, an many more. Woody spoke for those who carried a heavy burden or had come upon hard times. His words gave a voice to their struggle, and his songs gave them hope and strength. The Woody Guthrie Center, home to the Woody Guthrie Archives, preserves his legacy and life story and communicates the social, political, and cultural values found in his vast body of work. The Center is a repository for Woody ’ s writings, art, and songs and an educational resource for teachers and students everywhere. Enjoy a Tour and Appetizers at the Museum.
