Look at what our sweet Daughters of the American Colonists did!

The Midway Church & Society Board of Selectmen has decided to cancel this year's annual Homecoming, which had been scheduled for the weekend of April 25-26, due to the uncertainty surrounding the coronavirus.

The Midway Museum closed on Sunday, March 15, until further notice, for the safety of our visitors and staff. We will be monitoring the COVID-19 situation to make a decision about re-opening. Please watch this space if you are considering a visit, and we hope to be able to welcome visitors again soon. Stay safe!

Our "Night at the Midway Museum" has been postponed until further notice, out of an abundance of caution over the Coronavirus situation. We look forward to welcoming you all at a later date! Tickets already purchased will be refunded within the next 48 hours. For any questions or concerns, call Stacy at 912-571-7707.
