ALL SALES FINAL

The Madison-Morgan Cultural Center is cleaning out the attic – so to speak – and you can own a piece of history.

Over the last 45 years the Madison-Morgan Cultural Center (MMCC) has acquired many historic artifacts for use in museum exhibits and other displays. Most of these items are still on display at MMCC or are reserved for future exhibits. Like all museums, however, the Cultural Center has accumulated many artifacts that don’t fit its plans.

Best practice calls for museums to seek appropriate homes for its surplus artifacts, and MMCC has done just that. Some of the Center’s artifacts have recently found new homes in two of Georgia’s most important house museums. The public can now see several pieces of original 1850s furniture from Madison’s Boxwood mansion in a period-appropriate room at the Old Governor’s Mansion in Milledgeville. In addition, a fine marble table is now in use at the Hay House in Macon.

Twenty other items from the Center’s collections are now being made available for public purchase with all proceeds going back into MMCC’s museum development fund. The sale includes furniture and decorative pieces dating from the mid-19th to the early 20th Centuries.

The one-day sale will be on Saturday, November 13, from 9AM to 5PM in the Hall on Foster located behind the 1895 school building on South Main Street. Pre viewing will be available on Friday, Nov. 12, from 4 to 6PM. All prices will be firm until 2pm after which reasonable offers will be considered.
