Unveiling Historical Registry Signage
The museum will unveil a plaque which recognizes our building's placement on the National Register of Historic Places, the official list of the Nation's historic structures worthy of preservation.
Please join us as we commemorate this placement and share in what is an achievement for the village of Union Springs and surrounding area.
Funding for this plaque was generously provided to the museum by the Pomeroy Foundation.
The Frontenac Historical Society & Museum is sponsoring a pop-up exhibit of early American decorative arts this Saturday and Sunday, August 29-30, from 1-4pm at the museum located at 178 Cayuga St. in Union Springs.
Examples of works on display will include theorem painting, country painting on tin, metal leaf painting, Pontypool, free hand bronze, reverse glass painting, with gilding on glass, penwork and school girl art. A guild member of the Central New York Chapter of the Historical Society of Early American Decoration (HSEAD) will be present to discuss these works.
The Historical Society of Early American Decoration perpetuates and expands the unique skills and knowledge of Early American Decoration. They accomplish this mission through educational programs, research, publishing, and exhibitions of the work of their practicing guild artists in regional chapters.
This exhibition is free and open to all!
