Kim Guise presents Scraps: A Look into the Scrapbooks of The National WWII Museum

The Museum's archival collection includes hundreds of scrapbooks, which provide a unique peek into American lives during the war. They cover nearly every aspect of the war, but a large portion of the material was gathered by those on the Home Front as they followed the service of their loved ones serving far away. Because of their fragile nature, scrapbooks are often difficult to display. Get a glimpse inside some of these treasures from the vault and hear some of the personal stories assembled in these autobiographical works.

Lunchbox Lectures are free and open to the public on every first and third Wednesday of the month. For more information call 504-528-1944 x 463.
