What is a MEST?
MESTs are groups of museum staff members organized by region in order to be most effective for local disaster planning and response.
Who are the MEST Members?
MESTs are made up of staff members from museums, libraries and archives within a defined region. Directors, curators, facilities managers, and security staff have all been a part of active MESTs.
When do MESTs React?
In a localized emergency involving one or several museums in the immediate area, the local MEST members have the best knowledge of what the museum(s) have and needs, and what is available in the local area.
What do they do?
• Learn local emergency procedures; involve emergency management officials from local level
• Assist each other with disaster plan preparation if needed
• Determine local resources for disaster planning and recovery; coordinate usage of those resources to benefit all local sites
• Find speakers or instructors to come and offer training opportunities related to disaster planning
• Set up communication between all local sites, for both ongoing and emergency support
• Visit local sites at each meeting so all members are familiar with a museum’s layout in case their help is needed in an emergency

The mission of the Richmond History Center is to engage, educate, and challenge a diverse audience by collecting, preserving, and interpreting Richmond's history.
The history of the institution begins with Mann S. Valentine, Jr., the museum’s founder, who made his fortune with the creation and production of Valentine’s Meat Juice, a health tonic made from pure beef juice. As did many men of his era, Mann collected artifacts. His collection may have begun, as rumored, with a cigar box filled with arrowheads, but it soon grew to comprise hundreds of objects.
Mann shared his love of history with his brother, renowned sculptor Edward V. Valentine. Mann laid the foundation for the museum in 1892; when he died in 1893, he provided the original bequest for the Valentine Museum, leaving his personal collection of art and artifacts and the 1812 Wickham House.
The Valentine Museum, the first private museum in the City of Richmond, opened in 1898; Edward Valentine served as its first president from its opening until his death in 1930. In his own will, he left an incredible collection of his sculpture, papers, furniture and memorabilia to the museum that still bears his family name.
Over time, the institution has evolved from a general art and history museum to one focusing on the life and history of Richmond, Virginia. For more than 100 years, the Richmond History Center has collected, preserved and interpreted the materials of Richmond's life and history. Through its collections, exhibitions and programs it reflects and interprets the broad issues and diverse communities which define the history of Richmond and its surrounding counties. The History Center is the only institution in the city committed solely to this mission.
The Richmond History Center offers major changing exhibitions, which focus on American urban and social history, costumes, decorative arts and architecture. The History Center includes the stately 1812 Wickham House, a National Historic Landmark and outstanding example of neoclassical architecture featuring rare wall paintings.

grow up and for the grand opening of the time capsules 15 years later.
