Ever wonder what happened to those 50's artifacts that were once on display at the National Afro-American Museum and Cultural Center? Ever wonder where they are now?
Well, we're here to tell you!!
Those iconic artifacts from your childhood visits to the museum are being cared for in a new way. We are upgrading their storage with the installation of a new collections area. No longer on display, all artifacts from the From Victory to Freedom: Afro-American Life in the Fifties exhibit have been professionally cleaned and will be relocated. Through this blog we, Miss Kaitlyn Crabtree and Miss Susanne Lange, will be updating you on our graduate student capstone project to ensure the continued care of these artifacts. We are happy to share these experiences, and intend to inform the public through this behind the scenes look at collections management.
