Fun in the Sun: Summer Activities and Adventures

Past Exhibit
June 1st through August 5, 2016
 
Our exhibit covered ideas for travel, food, and recreation, from cycling to mountain climbing. Visitors could explore our antique maps, rare panoramas, and unique travel journals dating back to the mid-1600s. We also featured guides to star-gazing and solitaire for the less athletically-inclined.
