Do you have an old rotary phone, typewriter, View-Master, or other vintage gadget tucked away at home?
RML (Emporia) needs your help creating an interactive exhibit featuring old and obsolete tools, technology, and toys! We're looking to borrow items for a public display, especially objects that children can touch, explore, and figure out how to use.
If you have something that would make a great addition to this hands-on exhibit, or if you'd like more information, please contact Amy at (434) 634-2539.
Help us bring the past to life for the next generation!
