To honor the 100th Anniversary of the birth of Senator Robert C. Byrd in 2017, the Robert C. Byrd Center for Congressional History & Education has designed a major traveling exhibit, “Robert C. Byrd:  Senator, Statesman, West Virginian.” The exhibit features digital representations of more than 100 documents and photographs from the extensive Robert C. Byrd Congressional Papers Collection, housed in the archives of the Byrd Center.

The exhibit, which debuted at Shepherd University in April, 2016, will tour the state of West Virginia over the next two years, culminating in a celebration of Senator Byrd’s 100th birthday in November 2017 in the state capitol, Charleston.
