Fruitlands Museum – Bricks, Benches and Blacktop

by

In 2014, Fruitlands Museum would like to improve physical accessibility on site by focusing on the “3 Bs” – Bricks, Benches, and Blacktop. The goal is to make it easier for all guests to navigate and enjoy the campus.

This initiative will allow the Museum to:

Reinstall the brick walkway that leads into the Museum store and cafe.
Offer more places to rest on campus by purchasing new benches.
Repave the blacktop from the entryway down to the Farmhouse.

Yes, these are big projects – which is why they are asking for your help today. The 3 “Bs” are part of a larger facilities improvement plan which they hope to have complete by the end of 2015.

The first project is the brick walkway. They are halfway to their fundraising goal of $10,000 and hope to complete this challenge by the end of October.
