X-WR-CALDESC:Premiering September 8\, the 122 year anniversary of the 1900 
 Storm\, visitors will be able to experience the impacts of this historic n
 atural disaster through The Great Storm of 1900\, a brand new\, interactiv
 e exhibit in Rosenberg Library’s fourth floor Harris Gallery. The exhibit 
 will feature oral histories\, a memory wall of victims\, and a never befor
 e seen collection of black and white photographs.\n\n“I hope that everyone
  comes\,“ said Rosenberg Library Museum Curator\, Ivy Albright. “Not only 
 is the 1900 Storm still heavily researched and talked about\, it is a vita
 l part of Galveston Island history. It is personal to every resident and h
 as instilled a sense of community\, pride\, survival\, and perseverance.”
 \n\nWhile information on the storm has been available to access in archive
 s and databases\, this exhibit will be a library first\, offering an immer
 sive and more accessible experience. Photographs and oral histories will g
 uide people through the difficult days after the storm and\nthe slow clean
  up afterward. An 8-year-old’s handwritten account will be on display\, sh
 owing her unique perspective of the disaster. Intentionally added to the e
 xhibit is also the memory wall where visitors can read the individual name
 s of storm victims. While somber\, the hope is to evoke a sense of empathy
  and survival after loss - something Galveston is well acquainted\nwith.\n
 \nnPlaced around town are plaques identifying buildings and homes that wit
 hstood the storm. Locals have stories about ancestors who survived or peri
 shed. The community deserves to have this space as a place of remembrance\
 ,” said Albright. “This will also be the first time the Museum allows visi
 tors up to the fourth floor since the COVID-19 pandemic.”\n\nThis permanen
 t exhibit will be available to visit Monday through Saturday\, 9 AM – 5:45
  PM at 2310 Sealy in Galveston\, Texas.
