 ehind the scenes for an up-close look at objects from the Roanoke History 
 and O. Winston Link Museum’s collections—going beyond the archival box
 es to experience artifacts not typically on public view.\n\nFor this first
  program\, be among the first to see ten recently donated objects in their
  public debut. Executive Director & Curator Ashley Webb will share the sto
 ries behind these new additions\, how they came into the collection\, and 
 what they reveal about the region’s history.\n\nThrough this curator-led
  experience\, you’ll gain insight into how museums care for\, document\,
  and preserve collections\, and how these objects help tell and safeguard 
 Roanoke’s evolving story.\n\nThe next "Collections Unpacked" will take p
 lace Thursday\, July 9 (5:30–6:30 pm) and will explore the theme Revolut
 ionary Relics.\n\nInterested in preserving your own history? Join us in Ju
 ne for the launch of a new series\, Preserving Your Past\, designed to tea
 ch practical techniques for caring for your family photographs\, heirlooms
 \, and personal archives. The first session will focus on preserving famil
 y photographs. This more in-depth series will offer a hands-on learning ex
 perience\; additional details on cost and registration coming soon.
