The Hoover Institution hosted "Hoover Institution in Washington's  2017 Unpacking History Summer Series" on Tuesday, June 13, 2017 from 5:00pm - 7:00pm EST.

This summer the Hoover Institution shares "Unpacking History: New Collections at the Hoover Institution Library & Archives" which celebrates the variety, geographic range, and historical significance of Hoover's holdings by featuring rare and intriguing items from select collections acquired in recent years. 

Attendees of the summer series are invited to enjoy dinner and drinks while viewing archival exhibits. Curators will be on hand to answer questions and a topical discussion will be given by a Hoover fellow. 

On June 13 we featured photographs, documents, and various memorabilia related to the nuclear testing at Bikini Atoll, featured in the last edition of Hoover Digest. The exhibition was accompanied by a discussion on nuclear non-proliferation from former Secretary of Defense and Hoover Senior Fellow, William Perry.
