  A film describing the history of Mt. Rushmore and the contributions of the four sculpted presidents is shown every 15 minutes at the Visitors' Center. During the summer months, a sculptor is available to answer your questions about the sculpting techniques used in creating these monuments. Each evening a special program is conducted in the amphitheater. The conclusion of the program includes the playing of our National Anthem and the lighting of the four presidents.
