After almost three years of major architectural renovations, the Georgia Southern University Museum on the Statesboro Campus reopened to the public on Oct. 10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt has been a long project, but well worth the journey,\u201d said Georgia Southern Museum Director Brent Tharp, Ph.D. \u201cThe upgraded facility and newly designed galleries represent a new era for the museum. Visitors will still find old friends, like the mosasaur, but exhibited in new, more exciting ways, and will make new discoveries with never-before-exhibited artifacts in expanded permanent exhibits preserving the area\u2019s culture. We are really excited to be back open to the public.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Located on the Statesboro Campus\u2019 Sweetheart Circle in the Rosenwald Building, the Georgia Southern Museum is open weekly, Tuesday through Friday, 9 a.m. \u2013 5 p.m., and Sunday, 2 p.m. \u2013 5 p.m. It is closed Monday, Saturday and on University holidays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Admission to the museum is $4 per person. Children 3 years of age and younger, museum members and Georgia Southern students receive free admission.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
