Program Description

Event Details

From the earliest photographic formats to the digital photos of today, our photograph collections include examples of images from the earliest photographic formats to the digital photos of today. In this “behind the scenes” tour of the Archives, we look at some examples from our collections and learn what they tell us about the history of our area. 

Archives After Hours is designed to provide a close-up look at our collections and the work we do every day in the Stewart Bell Jr. Archives. Following the presentation, attendees are welcome to participate in a short tour of the Archives. 

Space is limited for this event and registration is required.  Registration is limited to guests ages 12 and up.  See below to register.  For more information, contact the Archives at (540) 662-9041 Ext. 17.
