Amend: The Future is Us
Curated February 13, 2020 – March 8, 2020
 
This exhibit, curated by Rockville High School juniors under the direction of Montgomery History Curator Elizabeth Lay and RHS English teacher Krista McKim, explored environmental issues Montgomery County and the world currently face. The creative pieces put together by local students emphasized the state of today’s environment and the consequences of pollution. As one RHS student said, “[We] want us all to work together to make a change so that [our] children and grandchildren will have a world to live in.” Check out more of the students’ work for this exhibit on the Rockville High School website.

Montgomery Maternity: Pregnancy, Childbirth and Infant Care at the Turn of the 20th C.

Curated by Caitlin White Magill
Opened September 7, 2013

Babies are born in Montgomery County every day.  But how was this experience different 50, 100, or 150 years ago? This exhibit delved into what’s changed (and what hasn’t) for mothers, fathers, doctors, and the babies themselves through artifacts, documents and images from our extensive 19th and 20th century medical collections. Medicines, tools, textbooks, clothing, and more illuminate developments in maternity, childbirth, and infant care.
