How do traditions, abilities, or ways of life shape a person's identity? In this two-part program, students will explore the theme of identity and discover the value of learning from museum objects. During a guided tour of the Human History Hall, students will delve into the stories of individuals and communities, exploring how museums portray these narratives of identity.

Following the tour, students will engage in a hands-on, collaborative activity to uncover symbols of identity through investigation of museum objects. They will answer questions, make observations, sketch, and present their findings, sharing their objects story and the deeper connections material objects have with individual or community identity.
