We are in the middle of several projects. We are creating this website, slowly renovating our facility, creating a digital inventory of our collection, attempting to grow our membership and to create a more memorable presence in our community.

Your support and contributions will enable us to meet our goals and fund our mission. Link coming soon.
Our next project will be a new ADA-complainant emergency exit door. We will need approximately $5000 for this.
