Our "History in Your Backyard" program is back October 2nd! This annual event is a great opportunity to learn more about Nashville history and how to preserve your own. This year Belmont University Art History professor Dr. Judy Bullington will explore how statues shaped 19th century visitor's sensory experiences of gardens. Then Carol Roberts, retired conservator from the Tennessee State Library and Archives, will give a talk on "Caring for your Family Photographs" to help you protect your personal family photos.
