Come dressed in your best 1920s costume, enjoy a premium buffet dinner from the Roosevelt Room, and flout prohibition with cocktails and other drinks.

Humanities Washington Speaker Event:
What is a Chief? How native Values Can Teach Resilience-John Halliday
Most museums display no more than 10 percent of their holdings, often citing “not enough space” as the reason. But there are also a wide range of cultural, philosophical, political, environmental, historic, and even superstitious reasons why museums keep some objects from public view.

In this talk, explore a wide range of hidden objects found in the back rooms of museums in our state and around the country. Examples include a Spokane institution that holds Bing Crosby’s toupées and a museum in Lynden that’s home to a 150-year-old pickle. When possible, we will have local museum curators on hand to answer questions, participate in our discussions, and unbox a few hidden treasures.
