New floor!

Today is the day we get our new cement floor! We're also working on picking out colors and textures for all of the flooring, countertops, and wall paint for the new meeting/programming room, bathrooms, and connecting areas.

Phase II Continues

It's clear why the lower level is blocked this summer! Our future programming room is studded with four feet deep holes that will contain support columns.

Breaking ground in the Children's Room!

The first changes to the Children's Room began this week! Our new puppet window will allow us to accommodate larger audiences comfortably, as well as utilize hand puppets and marionettes.

Dusty Progress!

Week one of Phase Two


Lower level renovations have begun! As you can see in the picture above, the old boiler is currently being removed. When we are finished the lower level will have a new programming room! We will also have the shell of our archival room and two new ADA compliant restrooms. 

We will be open during construction but there will be limited access to the lower level of course. Please check back here or call us at: 906-486-4381 for the latest updates on construction. 

Thank you!
