When the Arctic Museum opened in 1967, its collections included items given to the College before the museum was established, as well as objects and photographs donated to the museum by Donald and Miriam MacMillan and the Robert E. Peary family. This exhibit features some of these early acquisitions and looks at how they remain relevant to the museum's mission today.
