Below is a view of the design plans for the creation of the Connellsville Area Historical Museum. A collaborative project between the Connellsville Area Historical Society and the Carnegie Free Library of Connellsville, PA is set to open in 2013.
Primary funding for this project was provided by the Community Foundation of Fayette County supporting the feasibility / design study for the room. Laurel Highlands Visitors Bureau granted $20,000 to remodel it and a Seed Award of $5,000 from The Sprout Fund of Pittsburgh. Funds raised helped cover costs of a volunteer coordinator, a web designer, and advertising.
