SUMMARY:Hoover 150: A Birthday Celebration
DESCRIPTION:The Herbert Hoover Presidential Library and Museum is excited to commemorate the 150th birthdays of both Herbert and Lou Henry Hoover with a special new temporary exhibit: “Hoover 150: A Birthday Celebration.” This exhibit will serve as the final temporary exhibit at the Museum prior to the Museum’s complete remodel and renovation. \nStarting May 18\, visitors will discover the lives of the Hoovers in a completely new way\, highlighting their birthdays over the years and the celebrations in their honor. While both Herbert and Lou Henry Hoover lived private personal lives\, items on display will offer a unique perspective on some of their most intimate moments with friends and family. From childhood to adulthood\, experience these great memories through many items in the Hoover Museum collection never seen before. \nGiven the sesquicentennial birthdays of both Bert and Lou\, staff and leaders with the Herbert Hoover Presidential Library and Museum are excited to showcase an exhibit created\, designed\, and presented entirely in-house. \n“We hope visitors join in the celebration of these special anniversaries and realize the importance the Hoovers’ placed in acknowledging others\, savoring fleeting moments\, and delighting in life’s wonders\,” said Melanie Wier\, assistant curator at the Herbert Hoover Presidential Library and Museum. \n“This is an opportunity to discover the Hoovers in a remarkable way\,” said Thomas Schwartz\, director of the Herbert Hoover Presidential Library and Museum. “This exhibit properly provides a special sendoff to our galleries\, sharing the Hoover story in a festive way. With a monumental renovation only months away\, we encourage visitors to rediscover the museum one more time before our doors close until 2026.”
