New Exhibit at the McLean Co History Museum

There's a new exhibit coming soon to the McLean County History Museum.

Candace Summers, Senior Director of Education, explains the Asbestos Exhibit is the first temporary exhibit since 2014. This will explore the history of Unarco, an asbestos manufacturing plant that lied to their employees about the dangerous affects of asbestos. 

The opening for this exhibit is September 7th, and Summers says it will feature guest curator Mike Matejka (Muh-tee-kuh), a labor rights activist in McLean County. She also mentions that this exhibit faced many delays due to other projects.
