The Franconia Museum expects to move into its new quarters in the rebuilt Franconia Government Center on Beulah Road featuring video displays with a mix of authentic firsthand connections with our past. Hands-on displays will be rotated every several months depending on volunteer participation.
The new video displays will require the purchase of expensive electronic equipment. We have the information and pictures and need the equipment necessary to display it. Again, the videos will no doubt change every so often, adding new material, to keep visitors entertained with the latest information available. We often are presented with new artifacts that will interest visitors.
All of this has a cost, and we are asking you to help. Please join for 2025 and consider making an extra donation to help cover the cost of the move and new displays. We have put aside funds to start the process, but it is not yet enough pay for both the move and the normal yearly expenses. The Museum will be part of the new Franconia Government Center on Beulah Street next to Lane Elementary School. The building is almost completed, so we expect to start moving by mid-year.
You can help by renewing your membership, joining for the first time, or making a contribution. Follow the information below to contact us either by mail or electronically. In the meantime, the Museum is open Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 6121 Franconia Road. Thanks for your support!
