Something is Always Changing at the Museum
     
 
 
July 18, 2007

The exhibits at the Aiken County Historical Museum are changing! The updated exhibits, designed to delight visitors of all ages and interests include: a golf exhibit, nature room, architectural hall, the pottery exhibit and the equine exhibit. The Golf Exhibit highlights signature holes from some of the courses throughout the county. The Nature Room features the very special urban forest Hitchcock Woods, with photographs provided by the great Ken Perrine. The Architectural Hall showcases many old homes, and the works of Willis Irvin and Julian Peabody. In the Equine Exhibit, there will be a changing exhibit about the equine community, while the Pottery Exhibit has sherds from Lewis Miles Site and several broken pieces of Dave the Potters works.

June 21 through July 21, the ballroom exhibit will be “My Favorite Friend”. The public is invited to bring in 8x10 ready-to-hang photographs of their favorite pets.

We are currently putting together a special exhibit about SRS in three rooms. Also, the museum is being painted and the grounds are being rejuvenated, so come to the Aiken County Historical Museum; located at: 433 Newberry St SW and see the progress. Explore the museum exhibits on your own or opt for a docent guided tour. Please call 642-2015 for more information. Museum admission is free.
