The new Florence Museum website was designed with this goal in mind.  This site can be thought of: as a public learning resource for our community, as well as a window into what is currently happening at the Florence Museum.  In order to help us do this, we have included many new features to our website.  Some of these features include being able to do the following:

  • view samples from our collection
  • learn more about the history of the Pee Dee
  • learn about current & upcoming exhibits
  • get updates concerning our new building plans
  • sign up to become a member
  • sign up to volunteer at the museum
  • sign up for educational classes & workshops
  • download entry forms for annual art competitions

In addition to this, we plan to regularly update our “News” section with tidbits of local history, pictures from current exhibits from local artists, details on upcoming events & more.  We hope that you will visit us soon at the Florence Museum, as well as online.

-Andrew R. Stout, Executive Director
