Reflecting on the impact of the Temporary Museum, Troy E. Wright, our esteemed Executive Director, shared his thoughts: "The Temporary Museum has become a defining moment for so many. It's not just about the exhibits; it's about the stories that resonate with each visitor. Every person brings a unique perspective, weaving a tapestry of emotions - happiness, joy, and a profound sense of peace."

If you would like to see the museum extended further or host an event at the museum, we could use help with sponsorships. Our goal is to keep it open through the summer. However, that can only happen with your support. Contact Troy E. Wright, Executive Director - [email protected]
