SUMMARY:Film & Speaker Series: Wonderful\, Weird\, & Worrisome Objects in WA State Museums w/ Harriet Baskas
DESCRIPTION:The Wenatchee Valley Museum and Cultural Center is excited to collaborate with Humanities Washington for a night of Wonderful\, Weird\, and Worrisome Objects from our archives! \nJoin journalist Harriet Baskas as she unveils her life’s mission to find the oddest collection items tucked away in Washington State museums on Wednesday\, Sep. 24\, at 5:30 PM. \nMost 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. \nIn 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. \nThis event is free for everyone\, but registration is recommended. Doors open at 5 PM. \nFunds from this event support the Museum’s mission-serving programs\, including featured exhibits\, MakerSpace\, robotics clubs\, field trips\, student scholarships\, community cultural events\, film and speaker series\, and collection restorations. \nThe 2025-26 Film & Speaker Series is supported by the City of Wenatchee and the City of East Wenatchee. This event is brought to you by Humanities Washington.
