The Genesis of A NEW Kingman Museum
Welcome. This section is dedicated to chronicling the creation
of new spaces at Kingman Museum. Here we will document changes
taking place throughout the museum. We will take you back a few years
to what once was, show you how far we have come to date, and show
you plans for what will be with continued community support. Over the next 18 months, you will see a great deal of change here at Kingman Museum supported by donations and grants from the following: W.K. Kellogg Foundation, Battle Creek Community Foundation, Battle Creek Community Foundation- Hunter Fund, Southwest Michigan Rehab Foundation, Guido A. & Elizabeth H. Binda Foundation, Miller Foundation, Society of Exploration Geophysicists, Schweitzer Construction, Union Electric, Battle Creek Tile & Mosaic, Larry Sehy and family, Frank and John Zanetti, Barbara Porter, and Sally Turner, to name a few. More funding is needed to complete the renovations, new exhibitions, and accompanying programming. Naming opportunities are available. You can be a part of these projects with an investment of only $100. Gather your family or talk to your community service group about sponsoring a portion of our new exhibitions. Maybe you would like to sponsor the restoration of a mounted animal such as Barbara Porter has for the Speke’s Gazelle, sponsor a drawer in one of the permanent exhibitions like Sally Turner has, or sponsor an entire exhibit like the Sehy Family. Opportunities abound. Contact Sara Ann Briggs at 269-965-5117 or sbriggs@kingmanmuseum.org. See our current sponsor list here We appreciate the continue support of the SW Michigan Building Trades: Bricklayers & Allied Crafts #9 Thank you to our Programs Committee and Exhibitions Committee members and other volunteers involved in these projects. If you would like to volunteer, contact Beth Yahne at byahne@kingmanmuseum.org. PHOTO GALLERY OF RENOVATION PROGRESSCheck out our Facebook albums for renovation and new mezzanine pics: |
