Curator Conversations – Forensics and Historical Objects

February 21, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 7:15 pm

February 21, 2023 @ 6:00 pm 7:15 pm

The National Cowboy Museum is the repository of a purse allegedly belonging to Bonnie Parker. To determine the veracity of that claim, the Museum turned to the W. Roger Webb Forensic Science Institute at the University of Central Oklahoma to determine what information they could collect. Hear from a representative of the Forensic Science Institute and learn what they discovered and how forensics can be applied to prove (or disprove) the historical significance of objects.   $5; free for Museum members.
