Athens County's Attic to the Nation's Attic The Smithsonian Institute has been called "The Nation's Attic" for its role in keeping and conserving our national treasures. A look at the ACHS&M's object storage area conjures up images of this great American institution, but on a local scale.
Our collection numbers more than 40,000 objects. Our mission is to preserve and interpret these three dimensional memories.
In a nod to treasures collected, protected and interpreted, we offer this link to the Smithsonian Institution's History and Culture page.
