Description: Stop and Share – The Lambton Heritage Museum is setting up shop at the JNAAG through the month of October. Many stories about the First and Second World War remain buried in the community–and we want you to Stop and Share. The Lambton Heritage Museum pop-up will be equipped with a scanner, camera, and recording station. Want to share? Bring objects like medals, clothing, and other ephemera to be photographed. If you have letters or historic photographs, we would like to scan them. And if you have a verbal story you want to share, we will record it.
