    MOCACREATE: Time Capsules and Treasure Keepers

    December 7, 2019

    Why do we collect and save objects? Consider this as you look at objects from our Gathering exhibit that are up to 125 years old. Then, take a bit of the present and preserve it for the future by creating a personalized time capsule! Bring it home and store photos, letters, and objects that are important to you, then seal it shut and open it in 5 years to see what’s changed.
