This item must not be added to any third party search indexes.

This thesis proposal is presenting an exhibition about the evolution of amusement parks in the United States from the late 1890s until the present era, the late 2010s. The thesis will spell out the details of an exhibit that will show how amusement parks have impacted American culture, as well as how evolving technology has changed the amusement park industry.Starting as small businesses providing recreation and pleasure to local audiences, amusement parks evolved over the decades into sophisticated national corporations with a global reach. Yet this exhibit will also show that all the while, as technology improved and as old-time amusement parks gave way to larger modern theme parks, the goal remained the same: to leave the United States in a state of amusement.
