On November 9, from noon to 1 PM, in the Silver City Museum Annex you can hear remembrances of local veterans of the Vietnam war. The panelists will discuss how they remember their hometown before and after the war. This is the final brown bag lunch community panel specifically in honor of the Silver City Museum’s 50th Anniversary.
This activity is open to everyone and is free, though a $5 donation is suggested.
The exhibition 50 Years Ago in Silver City and the series of community panels are supported in part by a grant from the New Mexico Humanities Council.
The Silver City Museum creates opportunities for residents and visitors to explore, understand, and celebrate the rich and diverse cultural heritage of southwestern New Mexico by collecting, preserving, researching, and interpreting the region's unique history.
