Postal Museum Programs Online

Did you know that you can go to the Smithsonian National Postal Museum and watch some of the programs online?

For example, the program "The Pony Express Keeps Delivering," which was presented on April 14, is online. It is a little slow-going at the first, as they await for the program to begin, but be patient, and you can watch the program, as if you were there. If you want to fast-forward, the program begins at about 5 minutes into the video. It's not perfect, but it's interesting.

Upcoming programs include the "A-B-C's of Stamp Collecting Workshop," which will be streamed live on the internet from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. (Eastern Daylight Time). Of course, you can attend the workshop in person, if you're in Washington D.C., but if you're not and you're interested in stamp collecting, you might want to take a look at it.

Also online are exhibits, such as "John Lennon: The Lost Album," which features the stamp collection of the member of The Beatles, and much more.

Go check it out for yourself! There are many great things at the National Postal Museum.
