A new exhibit celebrating the 150th anniversary of Herbert and Lou Henry Hoover’s births opens at the Hoover Library in West Branch today.

Visitors can discover the lives of the Hoovers in a temporary exhibit titled “Hoover 150: A Birthday Celebration”. The exhibition highlights the Hoovers’ birthdays over the years and the celebrations in their honor. While both Herbert and Lou Henry Hoover lived private, personal lives, organizers say items on display will offer a unique perspective on some of their most intimate moments with friends and family. Many of the items have previously never been displayed publically at the museum.

The exhibit will serve as the final temporary exhibit at the museum prior to the facility’s complete remodel and renovation.
