Thank you to the Perth and District Community Foundation who has supported the
Middleville and District Museum with grants for four successive years!
The Museum was pleased to receive support to provide educational programs for the community and visitors for the 2024 season. The grant helped fund workshops and presentations on basket making, heritage plants and preserving photographs. A special event featured the Hopetown Telephone Company.
In 2025, the foundation provided funding for a Wedding Dress project showcasing
twenty-nine dresses from the 1880's to the 1990's.

*whipper snipper yard trimmer*
*wooden mallet*
