Among its treasures may be items preserved from an even earlier time capsule recovered after the Monitor Lodge building on Spring Street was lost to fire in 1920.Whether you are a history enthusiast, a member of the community, or simply curious, we would be glad to have you there. Come be part of a once-in-a-generation moment, connect with others, and experience a piece of Elgin’s history coming back to life.We look forward to welcoming you! https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/dae3d4e0-6286-11f1-817d-15c2c61d3dad-rimg-w496-h740-dcd9b978-gmir.jpg - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/elgin/unsealing-the-century-a-time-capsule-opening-celebration/100001990053640008 - **Event Categories**: fitness - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Age Limit: all_ages - Duration: 2 hours - Location: Elgin History Museum - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Elgin - **state**: IL - **country**: United States - **location**: Elgin History Museum - **lat**: 42.0412498 - **long**: -88.2778354 - **full address**: Elgin History Museum, 360 Park Street, Elgin, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Unsealing the Century: A Time Capsule Opening Celebration - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/05c5e0b8618c68c5aa4529fecec8700866502f86403d3bfff9e980a9a2ca0c4f-rimg-w1200-h630-dce8c379-gmir.jpg?v=1780234191 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Unsealing the Century: A Time Capsule Opening Celebration being held? - **A:** Unsealing the Century: A Time Capsule Opening Celebration takes place on Sat, 13 Jun, 2026 at 01:00 pm to Sat, 13 Jun, 2026 at 03:00 pm at Elgin History Museum, 360 Park Street, Elgin, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Unsealing the Century: A Time Capsule Opening Celebration? - **A:** Unsealing the Century: A Time Capsule Opening Celebration is organized by Elgin Lodge No. 117 A.F. & A.M.. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
