Tales from the Curio Cabinet

The Pentacrest Museums bring together featured collectors (past & present) from our collaborative exhibition series, My Collections. Join us as we learn more about the folks behind the objects, their personal collections, and what else they have that didn’t make it on display. The group will share their collection stories and recall their stints as curators of their own exhibits at the UI Museum of Natural History.
