Museum Now Open After Electrical Repairs

Fairhope, Alabama






LIGHTING PROBLEMS FIXED

The Fairhope Museum of History is now open for regular hours (9 -5 Tuesday through Saturday) after having to close for about two weeks for repairs to the building's electrical lighting system.

Museum director Gabriel Gold-Vukson said some of he lights stopped working causing safety concerns and repair workers discovered a larger problem with the building's wiring that needed to be addressed.

Additionally, during routine grass maintenance a rock was thrown up that broke the glass in one of the doors at the rear entrance; that should be repaired shortly as well, he said.


NEW SPORTS EXHIBIT

Gold-Vukson said staff is working on a new exhibit about sports, including an old bowling pin from the old "casino" that was located near the pier until about 1969.

It is our understanding all volunteers are still subject to the governor's current 'safer at home' order.
