Morgantown History Museum Tour and Scavenger Hunt
Tuesday, March 12, 2024, 2:00 p.m.

Join retirees for a tour and scavenger hunt at the Morgantown History Museum.  The museum will open exclusively for retirees on Tuesday, March 12, at 2:00 p.m.  The museum is free to visit and you’ll be among the first to see the renovations and new exhibits.  Explore the history of Monongalia County through an examination of artifacts and first-hand historical accounts. The museum is a dynamic facility that protects, researches, and maintains detailed exhibits about the region from prehistory to the present day.  After our tour, we’ll enjoy light refreshments.

The museum is located at 175 Kirk Street.  There is a small free parking lot at the museum that holds about eight vehicles.  The best option for paid parking is the lot on Chestnut Street beside where Black Bear used to be and across the street from 123 Pleasant Street.  From there you’ll walk about a block to the museum.  You can also park in the city lots behind Iron Horse and walk down the hill to the museum. 

To reserve your space and to help us be sure we have enough refreshments, please register at Morgantown History Museum.  For more information, you can contact our event coordinator, Sonja Wilson at Sonja.Wilson@mail.wvu.edu
