The community and press are invited to gather at the Reading Public Museum (RPM) on Thursday, May 1 at 3pm to witness and celebrate two exciting moments: the dedication of a time capsule exactly 100 years after The Museum’s cornerstone was laid, and the dedication of an Artemis 1 Moon Tree planted in the Arboretum. This gathering will celebrate a century of The Museum’s building and grounds, honoring its enduring commitment to education; its founders’ vision; and its lasting impact as it embarks on the next 100 years.

The ceremonial gatherings are free to attend by the public. After the dedications, visitors can enjoy educational activities in the Planetarium and attend a free lecture by NASA Scientist, Brian Campbell.
