Collection Spotlight: The National Postal Museum

The National Postal Museum may be closed to the public right now (see this announcement for details), but you can still learn about their collection and the fascinating stories that go with it!

During the fall of 2021 , the Office of Visitor Services and Volunteer Management hosted a monthly Smithsonian Volunteer Enrichment program titled Collection Spotlights: National Postal Museum. During the program, participants heard from Maggie Sigle, Manager of Volunteer and Intern Programs, and a panel of six expert volunteer docents. The group discussed highlights of the NPM collection by showcasing their own favorite objects. You can watch the recording here or click the link below to view a version with closed captions.
