Current Exhibits:
Snapshots in Time: Our Community in 1910 and 2010 focuses on community and its many meanings. The exhibit uses photos from the Museum’s historic Sadler Collection taken in the early 1900s and contemporary photos from the Laurel community. It challenges visitors to examine their own ideas of “What is Community?” by comparing and contrasting how these are the same or have changed in the past 100 years. We hope those who come to the new exhibit will take the opportunity to ask themselves how they define community today and how that may be the same or different from 100 years ago.
This Exhibit was put together with the help of several community groups in the Laurel area. To learn more about them, please click here.
