Main Street Historic Downtown Hannibal (573) 248-0881 Open Daily from 11:00am - 1:00am Don’t miss these Premium Events happening at Finn’s: Friday, Sept. 4th Wicked Hannibal Pub Crawl 5pm-8pm Saturday, Sept. 5th La Belle Epoque Vaudeville Review 5:00pm Unwoman: The Concert Event 7:30pm “Knees Up” Neo-Vintage ElectroSwing Dance Soiree 9:00pm Sunday, Sept. 6th La Belle Epoque Vaudeville Review 3:00pm Unwoman: The Concert Event 5:00pm The Burley-Que Late Night Cabaret 11:00pm 2 A Message from Ken and Lisa Marks Co-founders of the Hannibal History Museum We welcome you to the second annual Big River Steampunk Festival! When we first began to envision a new history museum celebrating Hannibal’s remarkable 200-year history in 2010, we could never have imagined the enthusiasm and support we would receive from both local Hannibalians and from guests all around the world. Putting together the museum has been a labor of love, not only for us, but for the hundreds of volunteers who have donated countless hours to help us bring our vision to fruition. The same now holds true for the Big River Steampunk Festival. We made the mistake of mentioning to other downtown merchants the idea of a new festival held over Labor Day weekend and how we thought Steampunk might be a good fit for downtown Hannibal; they immediately encouraged us to launch the new event and set us on this amazing journey…just eighteen months ago! In that time, we have reached tens of thousands of people on social media, attracted hundreds of volunteers and enthusiasts who wish to help, and added an unbelievably big project to our already bourgeoning personal schedule. We love Steampunk – its blend of history, science and art, the way it brings people from all socioeconomic groups, all age groups, all areas around the world together for shared merriment. But more importantly, we are excited to celebrate the history of Hannibal, Missouri as a major center of commerce during the Industrial Revolution, an overachieving small town that became wealthy and prosperous and was the epitome of The Gilded Age of America. Mark Twain, the patron saint of Hannibal, was friends with Tesla and Edison and loved inventors and tinkerers, even had his own creations patented…Hannibal is the embodiment of all that is considered Steampunk. Thank you for being a part of our dream – we hope you enjoy the Festival! 3 AN OVERVIEW Welcome to the 2015 Big River Steampunk Festival! This festival has been produced by the board and staff of the Hannibal History Museum Foundation, a federally-recognized 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, as a benefit to sustain the Hannibal History Museum. It’s also a great way to celebrate the history of Hannibal, Missouri, a town that became a main hub of commerce during the Industrial Revolution and was the epitome of The Gilded Age, a term coined by none other than Hannibal’s own Mark Twain! The Big River Steampunk Festival has three main areas of activity: Main Street: Free entertainment will be provided throughout the weekend on the Main Street Stage, located at the northeast corner of Main and Bird Streets. This is where the Costume Contests will be held daily at Noon. You will find great food and beverages here, plus you may purchase tickets and ask questions at the Big River Ticket and Information Booth located in this area. On Main Street, enjoy Nerf Dueling, Tea Dueling, Ballroom Dancing, and the Cake Walk Promenade. Be sure to visit the Creative Exchange at 205 N. Main Street where tinkerers may engage in Make-N-Takes and creative Steampunk seminars and workshops. The Great Midway: Located in Kiwanis Park on the riverfront, here you will find vendors from around the country selling their Steampunk wares. Free entertainment is provided throughout the day on The Great Midway Stage. Food and beverages are served here, and you may also purchase tickets and ask questions at the Big River Ticket and Information Booth. Exposition Circle: The circular layout of Nipper Park is where you will find the Victorian Oddities and Divination Tent, the Big River Circus Sideshow, the Mad Scientist’s Imaginarium and the Big River Airship Village as well as great food and beverages. This will also be the setting for the launching of the Hot Air Balloon Rides, Croquet Tournament and Picnic Basket Auction. There are several other “off-site” locations for events such as the Time Traveler’s Ball and Tea with Queen Victoria, please see the Map and Schedule of Events for more information. While a majority of the events at the Big River Steampunk Festival are free, there are various Premium Events that do require you to purchase a ticket for admission. Please see the “Schedule of Events” for more information. And finally, be sure to frequent the wonderful shops, restaurants, watering holes and museums in historic downtown Hannibal – many have sponsored the Big River Steampunk Festival and all will be open throughout the Festival weekend. Please thank them for their support!

Robert L. Snow, Commander of the Homicide Branch for the Indianapolis Police Department (now retired) never told his fellow officers that, under hypnosis, a clinical psychologist regressed him to a vivid past life. How could he tell them that he, a leading Indiana detective, once lived as nineteenth century artist Carroll Beckwith? After two years of painstaking investigation, Detective Snow now believes that he has uncovered evidence that proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that reincarnation is possible -- something no one else has been able to accomplish before him. Hear Detective Snow's amazing story at the Mark Twain Museum Gallery, 120 North Main Street -- copies of his book, “Looking for Carroll Beckwith”, may be purchased and autographed during this special event. ’ pecial S e t a l Blue P Malts Shakes re! . d An Mo Welcome Steampunkers! 9 Events, Spectacles, Shennanigans! yet More Premium Events!

EVEN More Free Events! Cake Walk Promenade On Main Street Saturday and Sunday at 4:00pm The origins of the Cake Walk are thought to have been developed on plantations in the South during Sunday afternoon get-togethers. Mimicking those in the "Big House", dancers would prance and promenade in comic fashion in a "chalkline walk" or "walk around" to entertain one another, with the prize of a delicious cake being given to one lucky couple. The "walk" eventually made its way into pop culture and became wildly popular, particularly at the same time that Ragtime music gained in popularity toward the turn of the 20th century. A revival of this Victorian artform will be presented on Hannibal's historic Main Street at the Big River Steampunk Festival -- practice your moves and strut your stuff, you might just "Take the Cake"!
