Future Home of Staley Museum scheduled to open in Summer 2015

The Staley Museum is slated to open to the public in the summer of 2015 in Decatur, Illinois.

Follow along as the Staley Museum comes to life in the historic original A.E. Staley home, built in 1884 in Decatur, Illinois.  The Staley family resided there from 1913 to 1951.

Over the course of the present year, the Staley Museum staff will be working to make the opening of the museum possible.

Some of the first projects on our list are those required by the City of Decatur.
Projects will include:

1.  New paving of drive way and parking area and creation of handicap parking slots.
2.  Creation of a handicap access: Ramp and doorway.
3.  A Handicap accessible bathroom on the main floor.
4.  Emergency lighting

These are some of the first jobs we will be tackling.  In fact the first on the list, the paving of the driveway and parking area, has already begun.
