The Drexel Museum had a great Saturday morning working on our 110 S Main Street building in Drexel. We are tearing out the old as we work to turn this into our new Administrative Office for the museum. Thank you to everyone who turned out to help!

What a busy morning! The Drexel Museum sends many thanks to Tim Murr, Wilson Sherrill, Brian Baird, Ron Blancaflor, Dan Hoyle, Carol Powell, David Harmon, and Madeleine Murr. Today we tore out wall paneling, ceiling tile, insulation, ductwork, and carpet. It was a nasty job but these guys took it on! 110 S Main Street in Drexel is now ready for another new space. It will be the Administrative Office for The Drexel Museum!
