When it comes to preserving the rich history of Los Alamos, it takes a village — a village of archaeologists, historians, architects and more, all with the Manhattan Project National Historical Park.
On Monday, Oct. 17, hear from five of these preservationists about what it takes to carefully maintain park properties — and get a peek at what’s in store — in our next Periodic Table, at Bathtub Row Brewing Co-op. It might get chilly outside, so bundle up and join us on the lawn.

He is the lead cultural resource interpreter for the Los Alamos unit of the Manhattan Project National Historical Park, merging his love of scientific history and the National Park Service with a passion for education and public outreach.
