Bartlett Town Column: Renovation open house at future Bartlett History Museum on July 4

The Bartlett Historical Society will once again hold a renovation open house at the future Bartlett History Museum building, the former St. Joseph Church, at 13 School St. in Bartlett on Monday, July 4, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The historical society has been working diligently to renovate this historic building and reopen it to the public, local folks and visitors to the area alike, as a multi-functional cultural center displaying the history of Bartlett, Hart’s Location and Livermore. 

They’ve made significant progress toward that goal. Everyone is invited to see the progress that’s been made on this renovation project. The building is right next to the Hodgkins Park where the town picnic and other Independence Day activities will be held. Please remember this is a work in progress open house, not the finished museum, so they’ll be some dust on the floor but you’ll get to see how this museum will look and talk with leadership members of the historical society about their plans for the museum.  This open house will be held rain or shine.  Please note that the building is unfortunately not yet fully accessible for people with mobility challenges.  Please take a few minutes on Independence Day to see a coming attraction in Bartlett.
