From March 21st into early May, the museum and gift shop were closed while our historic galleries received a well-needed refresh. Isn’t this what we’re all looking for after the past few years?
We are very excited about the repainting—only the second time since 1888! It’s all part of our rebranding that we’ve been working on during the past few years—among many other things.
Please join us in thanking Drive In Paint-Mart for donating the paint for the project, volunteers at The Hermann Dexter Lodge for helping pack up the collection before the painting and then returning to reinstall the galleries, and please also thank John Kelly Painting and his team for their superb workmanship.
The museum is reopening on June 17th, 2022, and we look forward to showing you our newly repainted galleries with newly reinstalled exhibits and displays. Please contact us with any questions.
