Description:

Photograph of volunteer, Rachel Butt, speaking with visitors at the old Charleston Museum during an "Open House" event. They are in the storage area and Butt appears to be showing the woman and child how objects were being packed up for the move to the new building.

The purpose of this event was to familiarize the community with the scope of the Museum's collections, and show how curators and volunteers were preparing the objects for the move to the new building.
