The Clements Library’s gorgeous architecture designed by Detroit-based architect Albert Kahn has been the subject of many pieces of University of Michigan memorabilia over the years. The building has been depicted in many illustrations, photographs, and, as described here, a plate, tile, and place mat!
Earlier this month, the Clements Library opened our new exhibit, For All Ages, highlighting familiar and unique toys and board games throughout American history. Many were not only fun, but also taught practical skills and moral lessons.
The exhibition For All Ages, on view October 3-December 23, highlights familiar and unique toys and board games throughout American history.
