This week:
Saturday, February 7– If These Things Could Talk: Objects from the Collection of Gettysburg National Military Park
Every artifact has a voice—if we’re willing to listen. If These Things Could Talk invites you to explore the powerful personal connections that Gettysburg National Military Park staff have with objects in the park’s museum collection. In this special interpretive program, rangers and staff members share the stories behind their favorite artifacts—some well-known, others rarely seen—offering unique insights into the people, events, and legacies of Gettysburg. Join us to uncover how even the smallest item can speak volumes about the past, and reflect on what stories the objects around us might one day tell.
