Event Details
A junk drawer is a drawer used for storing, small, miscellaneous occasionally useful objects of little to no (or unclear) monetary value, and possibly significant sentimental value. Junk drawers are often located in residential kitchens, but they may exist anywhere with cabinetry or furniture used for storage, including home offices or workshops, and even commercial workplaces and businesses. The phrase 'junk drawer' appears to be an Americanism dating to the early 1900s.
Visit the display case at the Maze Branch and try to guess what the mystery junk drawer items in the case are. You can find the answers in the key provided.
