Celebrate the 60th Anniversary of the Archives of the History of American Psychology with an exclusive look at our world class collections!
About this Event

The turns 60 this year, and we’re celebrating with a special behind-the-scenes look at our world class collections! Our team will be opening the doors to the Dr. Charles L. and Marjorie S. Brewer Reading Room, where visitors can learn about archival research and explore our rare book collection.

We’ll also be setting up shop throughout the National Museum of Psychology, showing off rarely seen artifacts and archival materials. Visitors can explore the art of multimedia archival preservation (including film, audio, and paper), the personal papers of famous researchers, early innovations in psychology, and much more.

All are welcome and light refreshments will be offered throughout the evening.
