Dr. Malcolm Weiss has loaned several pieces of his art collection to the Monessen Heritage Museum. The works are pieces showcasing Southwestern Pennsylvania's rich industrial heritage. Visit the museum to view this set of artwork; he will rotate different pieces in the coming months.
The annual Spring Ethnic Exhibit at the Monessen Heritage Museum will open in March and honor the Finnish immigrants to the Greater Monessen area. Anyone wishing to loan or donate items or photographs for the exhibit is asked to contact the museum at 724-684-8460 or bring them during regular business hours, Wednesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m.
Membership renewals are due for the Greater Monessen Historical Society. Membership runs a calendar year of January - December, and each member receives four issues of the society newsletter, "Mon Valley Historian." Memberships are $15 per year for an individual, $20 for a family, or $50 for a business.
