Charter member and volunteer Priscilla Zellner Neal begins putting up the Museum's display apparatus on Friday afternoon, April 8, assisted by President-Elect Betty Brandon. Priscilla is a college student. She often covers the office when the Director is out and runs errands, as well as serving as Co-Chair of the House & Grounds Committee.
President-Elect Betty Brandon and House & Grounds Co-Chair Priscilla Zellner Neal mount the Museum's sign as Museum Director Donna Zellner Neal watches.
Museum Director Donna Zellner Neal explains coming events to visitors as Treasurer-Elect Judith Mittiga and Museum volunteer Heather Sowder chat in background. Judy is Volunteer Coordinator. Heather is one of the Museum's enthusiastic college student volunteers.
Display board created by Charter member and volunteer Arlene McNair includes photos of our May 22, 2004, concert by the Amherst Male Glee Club; Canal Fest 2004; Winter Walk 2004; the March 2005 Community Fair; and a visit to 184 Sweeney Street. See other event galleries for more photos of each. Arlene creates wonderful displays for the office for the benefit of those who don't use the internet to view photos. She also creates wondeful labels for our exhibits and is always on the lookout for wonderful additions to our collections. She represents the Museum at meetings and events sponsored by other organizations and covers the office when the Director has outside appointments.
The display board on which the Museum sign and the unidentified photos exhibit was mounted was provided by our wonderful friends at Hadley Exhibits. Museum Trustees plan to work with Hadley Exhibits to create the interactive components of the future permanent Museum.
