We our members, and we want to show our appreciation! Join us for member appreciation night in honor of Edgar B. Hollis and the soft opening of our next exhibit "Newnan Now & Then: Roaring Back into the 20s" on Friday, March 6 at 5:30pm. *Memberships will be available at the door.

Art Activity: Monday, March 16 - How do you see yourself as a citizen or Coweta County in 2020? The McRitchie-Hollis Museum’s latest exhibit explores Coweta County now and then and compares our county in the 1920s and 2020s. One of our favorite galleries is a portrait art display by local students. Contribute to the exhibit by drawing your own portrait and thinking about yourself as a member of today’s community. What is important to you? How does your family describe you? How would you draw your personality? To complete the activity, you need an 8x10 piece of paper and drawing material (paint, crayons, pencil, etc). We will even hang your portrait up in the museum when it’s complete! @ McRitchie-Hollis Museum
