The Monessen Heritage Museum will be closed through January 5, 2016 for the Christmas break. It will reopen on Wednesday, January 6, 2016. Hours will be Wednesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m., weather permitting.

The “Riverboat and River” exhibit at the Museum, 505 Donner Avenue, will be ending in early January. Make arrangements to visit and see the importance of steamboats on the local economy in bygone years. Boat building was an important local industry and the transportation of people and goods by river was a vital source of commerce.

The spring exhibit at the Museum will feature photos and items that represent “Old Time Days” of Monessen. Anyone willing to donate or loan material for the exhibit is asked to contact the museum (724) 684-8460 or stop by during regular hours.

The annual fund drive and membership renewal is underway…here’s a reminder to renew your membership! Gift memberships make great holiday gifts! Single memberships are $15 per year with family memberships priced at $20. A business membership is $50. Membership is based on a calendar year and included four issues of the “Valley Historian” newsletter. Fund drive donations are used to operate the museum and plan future projects. Donations for the Building Fund go toward the renovation of the Museum Annex, which will provide additional display and event space and a permanent Monessen exhibit.

Google “Greater Monessen Historical Society” and check out our Facebook page and webpage. Keep abreast of events and see photos of previous ones.
