The 1851 Carpenter Shop Exterior Restoration Project will be starting next month. Here at the Heritage, we are so looking forward to it! But this month, we are doing some prep work for this project. This week, we are taking the electric meters and piping off the north wall of the Carpenter Shop and placing them on a pole in the yard. This will clear space for our masons to work.

We are still taking donations for this project. Please call 309 927-3899 or email bhha@mymctc.net, if you are interested in helping us with this historic restoration.
