We're Always Growing!

There's always something new to see at WCHS properties! We've been working hard to present our ever growing collection in new and exciting ways!

Reconstruction for the Beedle Log Cabin is well underway and should be completed in the Spring of 2021.

Beyond the fresh front steps of Harmon Museum, and through the renovated front hall, our Archeological / Native American Exhibit received a face-lift and our pre-historic artifacts have been given new life with updated displays. On the same level, the newly dedicated Bruce E. Young Farm Heritage Gallery has been redone and reorganized to better showcase the collection and the groovy new Mid-Century Modern Exhibit captures life in the 1950s and 60s.

Glendower Historic Mansion may be closed for the season but the upper floor's wings have been opened up to show the Maid's Quarters and Work Room to better convey the life of the less influential that also lived in the home. Glendower's other rooms have been updated to represent the ten decades in which it was lived in (1840-1940).

The newly renamed Armstrong Conference Center (the Old Post Office) has a wonderful front lettering along with the brand-new Armstrong Gallery of Flight. This gallery is dedicated to the men and women, of Warren County, that made great strides in the frontier of the skies and above.
