Phillips County Museum News for May 6, 2015

Thirty ladies flocked through the doors for the presentation on dating fabric. What fun it was to see the family quilts that Phillips County families have in their archives! Thank-you to everyone who brought a quilt for display. If you were unable to attend and would like printed material from the lecture please visit the PC Museum.

Unusual items make their way to the museum quite often. This week we had someone bring in an old United States War Savings Bond that was found with other family treasures. The family was not familiar with the name and had no idea why it was with their items. Our research team was able to find the name and that the individual had died in 1996. Never know what will come through the door tomorrow!

International visitors are starting to arrive. This month we saw visitors from Austria and Canada. The PC Museum has its doors open and is welcoming visitors. Our hours are Monday to Saturday 10:00 -5:00.
