Exhibit: "Netherlandic Treasures" on Display through August - Don't miss it!

These aren't your ordinary mobile phone-rendered maps to the grocery store, the park, or the museum!

Sea Monsters? check! Elaborately hand-colored cartouches? check! Many mast-sailing ships scattered all over the oceans? Of course! Don't miss "Netherlandic Treasures," our current exhibition on display in our recently renovated 7th floor exhibition space in the Hatcher Graduate Library.
