It was a day of broken dishes, sticky tape, and laughter. In the heart of Philadelphia, the National Park Service Independence Living History Center has an Archaeology Laboratory where millions of pottery fragments are the focus of research, and where visitors are welcome to see the work in progress. A few local TCC members got together to offer their expertise on transferware and were welcomed with open arms. Deborah Miller, Assistant Laboratory Director & Outreach Coordinator seemed thrilled when we proposed a one-day, blue-printed, intensive workfest, and with the approval of Jed Levin, the Lab’s Director, we met on Monday December 7, 2009 at 10am.
Rich with content for ceramic collectors, researchers, authors, curators, and historic archaeologists, the sites are sure to deliver value for their visitors. The exhibition’s curators continue to enhance them and, now, with site application upgrades, including a new magnification feature and upgraded content management capabilities, the TCC and its collaborators are pleased to relaunch these exhibits, all free to a worldwide audience.
