Celebrate Archives Month at the Wagner Free Institute of Science as we showcase glass lantern slides from the special collections of six Philadelphia institutions during the 2nd Annual Philadelphia Lantern Slide Salon on Wednesday, October 8th from 6:00-8:00 PM.
Predating the motion picture, lantern slides were used for entertainment, to document, and to illustrate educational programs and courses. The salon will be held in the Wagner's Victorian-era lecture hall using an original 1914 lantern slide projector. Take a step back in time when the Wagner revives an old technology for a rare glimpse into Philadelphia's past.
This program is part of Archives Month Philly which seeks to raise awareness of the value of historical records and collections.

Founded in 1855, the Wagner Free Institute of Science is dedicated to providing free public education in science. Its programs include free courses and lectures, field trips and lessons for children and museum tours for all ages. The evening science courses are the oldest program devoted to free adult education in the United States.
The Institute’s Museum houses more than 100,000 natural history specimens, a collection begun by founder William Wagner in the early nineteenth century and expanded by the pre-eminent scientist Joseph Leidy in the 1880s. Completed in 1865, the Institute’s National Historic Landmark building is essentially unchanged since the late-nineteenth century and includes a Victorian Exhibition Hall filled with fossils, shells, minerals and mounted animal skeletons and skins displayed in original wood and glass cabinets. The Museum is open to visitors Tuesdays - Fridays, 9 AM to 4 PM, year-round. Evening and weekend programs are offered during the fall, winter and spring.
