Taulbut’s Treasures: Behind the Scenes Video Exhibit

Access

About

Anthony Taulbut (1874-1949) was many things: an avid collector, historian, explorer and pioneer. He was a passionate and eccentric man who had an insatiable curiosity and a lifelong dedication to learning. He led a busy and dedicated life in which the pursuit of knowledge was ever present. His great contributions to the conservation of history went hand in hand with his sense of community. Mr. Taulbut had a profound and positive impact on those around him and the community he loved.

This video presentation will take the viewer on a virtual behind the scenes journey through artifacts housed at the Mission Museum. The virtual tour will focus specifically on those artifacts donated from the extensive collection of Anthony Taulbut - the collection that formed the original core of the Museum’s collection of artifacts!
