Well look at this! The beautiful mirror and mantel from the Morse Mansion have been rejoined! These are key items in the Museum's collections, and now they will be properly displayed! Thanks to Darryl Couts and crew -- we're deeply appreciative to Mark Spohn and Earl Humphreys and whoever else helped! Lots of exciting things happening around the Museum while we are "closed" for winter break!
Best wishes for a happy new year all year long! [Vintage postcard from the Museum's collections.]
Joyous Greetings of the Season to all our friends! (Vintage postcard from the Museum's collection.)
Some elvish volunteers have been in the Museum getting a start on our mile-long list of "Winter Break" projects -- patching a section of the floor in the Francis Hall! Thanks to a generous donation of wood flooring and great volunteers, we'll soon be able to check this long-needed "to do" as "to done."
Happy Thanksgiving Week! The Museum is open Tuesday, Friday and Saturday. Our volunteers will take a much needed break on Wednesday and Thursday. But remember, the Museum closes for winter maintenance in December and January, so this is the last week to stop buy to purchase locally themed holiday gifts! Of course, you may still purchase online at www.esmuseum.com. Look for the Gift Shop!
