History Outside the Box

Special Event at Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation®

Virtual Event: July 7, August 4, September 1, October 6, November 3, and December 1
Location: Hosted on Instagram - Stories Available for 24 Hours

Join us on Instagram the first Friday of each month as Historical Resources staff members dig through our vast archival and library collections to tell the stories of items that aren't usually on exhibit. Photos, scrapbooks, letters, books and more await. We'll look at a different topic each time, so check out our calendar of events for each month's theme.

This year's History Outside the Box events will be presented virtually on Instagram Stories, where they will be available for 24 hours after being posted. Topic wrap-ups and further information for some History Outside the Box programs will also appear on our blog.
