May, 2020 During these uncertain times, the board is working on new ways to keep the musuem 'open', even if for now it's done through virtual methods. Very soon we will be posting brief clips of the Morton House and Morton Cemetery to share some history and fun facts. We are looking at ways to safely hold our Tuesday Talks-we have some great topics and speakers lined up!
We look forward to the time when we can safely host large gatherings in our cozy rooms, but until then we are excited about being able to stay connected using new technology. The Morton family was fond of new technologies in their lifetimes-we are sure they'd approve of today's new methods!
2020 Preservation Awards
Join us at The Secret Garden on September 26 at 7 PM while we reveal the current winners of our Preservation Awards. The Morton House Museum has recognized Benton Harbor homes and businesses for their outstanding renovations since 2010. We will also announce buildings that are endangered and hope to see saved. Some of our preservation winners were first on the endangered list.
Additionally, we hope to be available for small private tours later this summer. Please call 269- 876- 7692 or email mhmdocents@yahoo.com if you would like to make an appointment for a private tour.
For more information, like The Morton House Museum on FaceBook for announcements on upcoming events and fun facts.
