Project Details

Buggy in Progress Funding was provided for the Afton Historical Society to rehouse large objects in their collections. Approximately 180 large objects were addressed during this project, with some being placed in archival boxes and other, larger artifacts being mounted on wooden pallets and wrapped in plastic. These new methods of storage will assure that these articles are properly preserved for the education of generations to come.
