OPENING POSTPONED!
Friday 7/1/22 - 6 am- It was learned late yesterday afternoon, that a board member who was part of our team preparing for our exhibition's opening Saturday, has tested positive for Covid. For this reason, in the interest of the safety of our membership , object donors for the show, and other museum visitors and invited guests, we regret that we have determined that the most prudent course is for us to postpone the opening of "From the Home Front to the Front Lines", for a brief period of time such as recommended for museums. Please check back on our website and social media for updates. More information and an alternate opening date will be published as soon as we know it. The RJHS
