Register to attend a one-on-one session with preservation specialists and receive a professional review of your family treasures and heirlooms. As our guests, you will gain insight into the historical significance of your items and learn best practices to assist in preserving your personal collections for generations to come.

This special session is inspired by the exhibition At the Vanguard: Making and Saving History at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). Visitors are especially encouraged to bring items related to HBCU history, traditions, student life, scholarship, athletics, and community legacy.
