You are invited to join your fellow archivists on Friday, July 24th between 2-4:30 p.m. at the James B. Duke Library. Visitor parking is available near the library or behind the Chapel. The address is 3300 Poinsett Highway, Greenville, SC. Appetizers will be served, and you can drop in on a guided tour at any time. If you are able to come out earlier in the day, please consider visiting the Sigal Music Museum, the Upcountry Museum, or you can go shopping on Main Street near the gorgeous Falls River. If you want to stick around after the event at Furman, the Main Street Fridays music festival will be happening, or you can go to the Shakespeare Festival.
