When the DeWitt County Museum opens for the season on Saturday, April 1, patrons will be able to view a new exhibit as well as building updates.
DeWitt County Museum Director Joey Long told Regional Radion on the WHOW Morning Show, while the museum was closed for the winter the carpet on the staircase was replaced and the visitor bathroom was renovated.
Another update to the house was returning a doll display into a linen closet. Long felt this was appropriate due to the museum's intent and purpose.
The 'Historic Houses of DeWitt County' is a new exhibit that will be debuting when the new season opens. Long mentions this exhibit could not have happened without the response she received from the community and is thankful for their support.
The DeWitt County Museum opens for tours on Saturday, April 1. For information on admission and hours visit www.chmoorehomestead.org or call (217) 935-6066.
