Celebrating 50 Years at the Museum
In the fall of 2020, the museum celebrated a half-century of hands-on educational opportunities for students and visitors alike. When the coronavirus pandemic shifted plans for an in-person Gala Celebration, the museum faculty and staff pivoted to a virtual celebration that took place during Alumni Family Weekend.
