The Union Parish community has stepped forward quickly to show their support of the Union Museum of History and Art. As of today, we are very near our fundraising goal of $9,500 for preparation of the museum gallery: installing a specialized lighting system, installing permanent display wall panels, painting the walls, and installing new flooring. We sincerely appreciate everyone who has become a "First Friend". Your support will be a lasting legacy for this community.
Once all the renovations and preparations are completed, it will be time to launch the first exhibit: "Celebrating the Waters of Union Parish."
