Rufus Porter Museum

Karla will share information about the latest projects at the Rufus Porter
Museum, especially focusing on the expansion of its cultural complex with
construction of a classic post and beam barn that will complement Main
Street and the two other historic museum buildings on the site. The new
structure will feature the Museum’s collection of over thirty wall murals,
reconstructed and displayed in the design of the original rooms. The largest
collection of wall murals of any kind in the United States, these beautiful
murals have never been gathered together in one place or open to public
view. This and other unique Rufus projects and programs make our region
a locale for the folk art so popular in the US right now.
