Another business is making a sizeable contribution to the Daviess County Historical Society.
German American Bank is making a $25,000 donation to the Daviess County Museum for the “Access to History” renovation and restoration project.
The check will be presented to members of the Daviess County Historical Society Board today at 3:00 pm at the museum on Main Street in Washington.
The $25,000 donation will help the museum to work to restore and renovate the east wing of the historic building in downtown Washington.
The new design project, named “Access to History,” will create a new exhibit and program area that adds over 2000 square feet of usable space.
The renovation will allow visitors to access the museum from street level and includes areas for exhibits, meetings, and volunteer workstations.
President of the Daviess County Museum, Doug Doughty, says through this latest investment they will be able to reach their goal to be one of Daviess County’s true cultural landmarks and preserve Daviess County history for years to come.
