We are sad to announce that two staff members, Alison Costanzo and Amanda Helfers will be leaving the St. Charles History Museum to enter the next chapters of their careers. Thank you both for your years of dedication to our community!

During these tough times in the midst of a national health crisis - museums, especially local museums like ours - are at risk just as much as small businesses in our community, and are at significant risk of losing key sources of revenue that we need to operate normally for the foreseeable future.

As the first confirmed case of Coronavirus/COVID-19 was confirmed in Kane County earlier this week, the Museum has implemented new routine cleaning procedures to ensure the health and safety of Museum visitors.

We’re over halfway to reaching our year-end fundraising goal of $10,000! Thank you to everyone who has pitched in whatever they can through our #GivingTuesday and end-of-year giving campaigns.
