Episode 6: Creating The Collections Center
The Alamo Collection includes thousands of artifacts like documents, weapons, textiles and paintings. These items truly show you what life was like over the course of the Alamo's 300-year history.
Today we reveal how those items are chosen, organized and displayed in the new Ralston Family Collections Center, plus the measures being taken to keep them in museum-quality condition and what it's like to be up close and personal with the hallmarks of history. Featuring the Alamo's Collections Manager Misty Lanham.
