Tune in to Byers & Co. on Tuesday and hear about the museum's Ten for 10 fundraiser to revitalize historic Staley Square!
Shout Out to our Amazing Volunteers: Sharron Thornton, Amy Scranton & Anne Gore!
Through their hard work, enthusiam and great taste,
The museum Tablescapes entry received the blue ribbon of “ Most Elegant”!
The theme for the table was the love story of A.E. Staley Sr. And his wife, Emma Staley.
Sharron, Amy & Anne put their heads together and came up with a winning combination. They even included a handful of soybeans!
Without Emma, the Decatur Plant may never of happened…
But you’ll need to visit the museum to learn the full story. ♥️😊

Last week Museum Director Laura Jahr made the trip from Decatur, Illinois to Providence, Rhode Island for the 2026 conference for the American Association for State and Local History.
Part of the conference included tours of various museums, like the Tomaquag Museum, and a walking tour of the Freedom Trail in Boston, MA.
Check out some of the photographs she took while visiting!
