The National Museum of Industrial History is excited to announce its new "Meet the Expert" series, engaging and interactive programs that seek to answer these questions and more.
Kicking off the series will be a discussion led by Edward S. Henning on Saturday, October 15th at 11 a.m. titled, "Natural Resources that Influenced the Rise of Local Industry." The program will seek to connect the Lehigh Valley's rich deposits of raw materials and the industrial boom that occurred after their discovery.
