Even though the museum has been closed since March 2020, we have been planning and completing projects, which include turn-of-the-century street and directional signs. In addition, we are installing floral sculptures to put more floral in Floral City. We would like to thank our generous donors who have responded to requests for support of these and other projects.

2021 Museum Projects

2020-21 FCHC Project

	New “old” street signs in Floral City's National Register Historic District were funded by Duke Energy, Red Brick Place, and Anonymous Donor.
	Volunteers from the Heritage Council and Floral City Garden Club cleared the Northeast corner of Florida Ave and Orange Ave.  Excitement is growing for the 2021 projects to "restore the floral in Floral City."
