The Grand Opening of the Alleghany Historical Museum, at the First Community Building (45 North Main Street), will be August 20 & 21.
Friday night at 7pm on the 20th, we’ll have a Grand Opening Preview, where donors can see the exhibit and the lovely new Streetscape in downtown Sparta. If you’re interested in coming to the Preview, but haven’t donated before, the donation box will be right beside the door – anyone is welcome.
The next day, Saturday, we will have demonstrations, live music, a ribbon cutting, and a 50/50 raffle.
We’d like to again thank several of the people who helped us acquire the new building: Darlene Wyatt at Mountain Dreams Realty, Lisa Crouse, Whitney Ivey, April Horton-Fender, Dennis Gambill, Donna Edwards, Ricky Brown, Richard Doughton and Milton Campbell and the Board of Directors at First Community Bank.
As always, your monetary donations (and book purchases) help us reach our goals. If you would like to donate to the Museum Building Fund, you can do so at any time, online at ahgs.org or by mail at PO Box 817, Sparta, NC 28675.
We hope you’ll be able to join us to celebrate our Grand Opening at our new location (45 North Main Street).
