Plans for the new addition
The museum’s capital campaign to raise $2,000,000 began in 2017. These funds will help to create new exhibits, establish an endowment, and build an addition to house the Ross Hall Wall, a unique artifact of priceless historical worth.

The Fire
On Thursday Night, July 17th 2003, the Metlar-Bodine House Museum suffered a serious fire that destroyed a great deal of its collection and one-third of the building. Watch this video to see some of the damage. The remainder of the building and the collection were seriously damaged by smoke and water. 11 years later the historic site is completely restored and a new accessible entrance with ADA compliant restrooms is being constructed. This addition will allow the building to obtain permanent occupancy and by late spring 2014 the museum will once again be open to the public.
