Smyrna Museum Manager, Jennie Eldredge, presented Renovating
History: Smyrna’s New Museum for today’s First Sunday Lecture.
Ms Eldredge discussed the progress of the museum renovation so far and gave a sneak peek at some of the exciting new exhibit themes and topics. There were discussions about plans for the future once the museum reopens in the fall and ways people can get involved in the museum and the Smyrna Historical Society. The grand re-opening is planned for later this year.
