Many of these objects will be on loan from various Heritage Partners and community members. Many more will come from the library’s own archives and special collections.\n\nFree.\nOhio County public library\, 52 sixteenth street\, wheeling\nMonday – Thursday: 9 a.m. – 9 p.m.\nFriday: 10 a.m. – 5 p.m.\nSaturday: 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.\nSunday: 1 p.m. – 5 p.m.\nPart 1:\nartifacts related to the indigenous people of the Wheeling area\nThe exhibit will correspond to the five symbolic stars on the new flag of the city of Wheeling.\nThe first installment represents the history of native peoples of the Upper Ohio Valley (the indigenous star)\, who lived in this region for thousands of years before Europeans arrived.\nMost of these artifacts are on loan from the Grave Creek Mound Archaeological Complex Research Facility\, and the OCPL thanks Curator Hank Lutton for a very interesting selection.\n \n  \n\n\n \nWe encourage you to stop by your library to take a good look at the exhibit\, located just behind the main display cases.
