The exhibit will focus on Slovaks in church and school, in business, sports, entertainment, politics and the military through photographs and artifacts lent by between 40 and 50 area residents. The exhibit will also address Slovak clubs, fraternal organizations and family life by including items like needlework, quilts, antique wooden ironing boards, sauerkraut cutting boards, poppy seed grinders, political memorabilia, military medals and hand-crocheted tablecloths.
