The Ohio Presidents Surprising Legacies Exhibition will make its public viewing debut tomorrow at the Allen County Museum. The exhibition will run tomorrow through October 30. Earlier today, a member sneak peek reception took place from 5 PM to 7 PM ahead of tomorrow's scheduled opening. For the big debut, the Ohio Presidential Exhibit will feature guest curator Dr. Christine Fowler Shearer who shared with us on what visitors can expect to see tomorrow.
Christine Fowler Shearer – Independent Curator and Art Historian – “It’s kind of theme underneath it is called Surprising Legacies, which means we’re trying to pull out some information that’s not as well-known necessarily about the presidents and their wives. Inform people about how human they are and how their lives kind of mimic everbody’s else’s in some way despite the fact that they lived in a really big white house.”
