The GREAT RIVER CURRENTS CONFERENCE exists to bring together academics and scholars, community members, government officials, business leaders, and other interested constituents to explore the centrality of the Mississippi River to the past, present, and future of the Tri-States. Through the conference, we hope to bring together a broad and motivated constituency to exchange ideas to benefit the economic, cultural, artistic, political, spiritual, environmental, and academic life of the region.
