The Museum has been, and will continue to be closed for an indeterminate
period of time.
The last major snowstorm did major damage to the property where we are
situated, including bringing down the power lines supporting the Museum building.
It could be another 3-4 weeks before we are allowed to resume activities.
If you are interested in seeing the museum open, please call the Town
of Wappinger Supervisor Chris Colsey at (845) 297-2744 and ask him "What
can be done to expedite the museums opening."
