When a place says they are open and you get there and they are not, it's not a good look. We drove quite far to this place. It's like being stood up.

This small museum was informative about local artist Ruth Starr Rose who was inspired by Negro spirituals to make an array of art pieces from oils to pencil drawings. The staff was extremely knowledgable.

What a great little spot to check out. I was expecting this to be more of an art gallery than a history museum. An interesting and different history of the local families who founded Copperville and Unionville just north of here.Great printing making exhibit with more religious based undertones mixed with African themes. There are some cool biblical stories mixed with folklore you wouldn't find elsewhere. They have the place pretty well organized and have completed prints as well as the different etchings to each work. The walls are covered in prints. They have books showing other original works as well. Though still in it's infancy, there is a lot of potential for the museum. Even though the building is fairly small, they have managed to pack the place full of art and are able to tell some great history of the families to go along with the works. One of the guys who helps with the place traces his ancestors back to these founding families. It's a place unlike what I've ever been to before.The museum is on the side street and there are a few parking places right in front of the building. There is also an underground railroad marker out front showing where the trail passes by.
