"THE MUSEUM," Inc., to put it politely, has been evicted from its home of several years at Cotton Hall in Colquitt, Georgia. Currently, it is in storage. Some space is being donated but critical items are in rented storage costing us just under $100.oo monthly. Artifacts, displays, genealogy records and the massive photo/slide collection and library are not currently available to the public. They may soon mold and mildew beyond salvaging. We will continue to answer questions by email if at all possible or at least refer you to a suitable reference. CAN YOU HELP? Since no funds were available, the move was carried out by dedicated honest volunteers, none of whom had either the time, materials or experience to archivally pack and label everything properly. Thus, we are faced with a massive problem--that of properly repacking and inventorying everything. Estimated time and cost is one year and $30,000 for salary and supplies. Amount on hand is less than $30.oo at present. Please help us secure a grant, tax-exemp donation or gift from agencies, individuals or groups so we can successfully undertake and complete this needed task, and, pay our storage bill. Contributions will remain anonymous except as directed by the donor. They may be sent care of Dr. Patrick McCaffrey, the museum attorney, who will supervise their use and distribution. We are a TAX EXEMPT (501) organization. In the meantime, watch this site for a photo-gallery of previous exhibits, festivals and other interesting activities from our past. Good luck to us all...and thank you !
