Cummings Center for the History of Psychology
73 South College Street, Akron, United States
The turns 60 this year, and we’re celebrating with a special behind-the-scenes look at our world class collections! Our team will be opening the doors to the Dr. Charles L. and Marjorie S. Brewer Reading Room, where visitors can learn about archival research and explore our rare book collection.
We’ll also be setting up shop throughout the National Museum of Psychology, showing off rarely seen artifacts and archival materials. Visitors can explore the art of multimedia archival preservation (including film, audio, and paper), the personal papers of famous researchers, early innovations in psychology, and much more.
All are welcome and light refreshments will be offered throughout the evening.
The event will take place on the 1st and 2nd floors of the Cummings Center building. The street address is 73 S. College Street Akron, Ohio 44325-4302 (on the corner of Mill and College Streets).
A wheelchair accessible ramp is located on the northeast side of the building, near the main entrance. The National Museum of Psychology and Archives of the History of American Psychology are wheelchair accessible. A wheelchair is available to loan for those visiting. Please contact us ahead of time with any accessibility requirements so we can work together to make your visit comfortable.
