Curator, Dr. T. W. Acheson, speaking at the From Black Bag to High Science exhibit opening at the Fredericton Region Museum.

On August 2nd, the Fredericton Region Museum held the official launch of its medical history exhibit.  With the assistance of the summer students and some really great volunteers, the Museum was given a good scrub, chairs were set up, nibblies purchased and the finishing touches placed on the exhibit.  It was a very busy day for everyone involved but it was worth all the effort.

Justin Dutcher kindly volunteered to film the exhibit opening speeches and has provided the Fredericton Region Museum with copies.  He also uploaded them to Youtube for everyone to enjoy in two parts.  The vidoes are definately worth watching.  The curator, Dr. Acheson, explains some of the history found in the exhibit and part of the long journey to create it.  Thank you Justin!
