Changes

We mentioned before that there were going to be some changes during our "closure" during the month of January (plus part of December and February) and we weren't kidding- even if you can't see all of them yet.

For one, we have installed a new phone system, and soon will have voicemail set up (hopefully by the end of today even), so that you can leave a message for us! We're also in the process of getting a new logo and website design, so be on the lookout for that to roll out sometime in the next few months.

We also had a floorcloth commissioned for our Visitors Center. We just received pictures of it and wanted to share them here. We can't wait until it is finished and arrives! Soon, we will be adding windsor chairs and a table for meetings and for visitors waiting for a tour.

We've also been working hard on working on the Craighead-Jackson Education Center, as mentioned in an earlier entry. We are hoping to have it open during a few of the spring special events.

We've also been planning for upcoming special events! We've got our African American Experience Day coming up on Saturday, February 19. We'll also be restarting First Fridays on March 4, with David Madden, author of Sharpshooter,  here. More information about this event will be on our website soon! We are moving away from hosting art shows for First Fridays, but instead will have great speakers on site discussing a wide variety of topics.

We've got a few more changes waiting in the wings, so stay tuned!
