In the 1800s Americans became increasingly interested in collecting souvenirs that physically connected them to important places, people and events in the emerging national story.

Fragments of a cherished quilt, gavels made from wood from famous trees, or bits stone collected on tourists’ journeys all tell us something about their collectors and what places and events they deemed historic.

Tour 'Prized Relics' with Hilary Anderson Stelling, Director of Exhibition and Audience Development, and curator of the exhibition.
