Every Thursday afternoon here at the museum we gather together for games, puzzles, knitting, coloring, conversation and snacks. Everyone is welcome to join in.

While here there are lots of things to browse as well.

Our gift shop is filled with various treasures made by local crafters who sell on consignment.
The adoption by donation shelves are full of items waiting for a new home. Donations help keep our museum running smoothly, while keeping items out of landfill. It's a win win!

The founder of our museum, Thomas I Spidell, was particularly fond of his mustache cup collection.
They allowed men to drink their tea or coffee while keeping their mustache dry.

This afternoon at 1:00 we will have unlimited tea and coffee at our weekly social. We hope to see you.
