Upcoming Exhibit: Clara Barton
August 1, 2026 – October 31, 2026
After the war, Barton spearheaded the search for more than 60,000 missing soldiers at her Missing Soldiers Office in Washington, D.C. These wartime experiences directly inspired her later founding of the American Red Cross in 1881.
This exhibit includes ten banners that use a combination of photographs, illustrations, artifacts, and storytelling to share Barton’s story.
