Welcome to Spellbound!

Welcome to Spellbound, our museum blog!

HomeTourHave you seen a little extra activity at the museum lately? We’ve been gearing up for the historic home and sites tour this Sunday afternoon as part of Forney’s Liberty Fest. Tickets for the tour include a sneak peek at our new exhibit gallery PLUS our multi-purpose room filled with recent donations and rotating exhibit displays. Tickets will be on sale Sunday at the Spellman Museum starting at noon. $10 adults and $5 kids 12yrs and under.

Thank you to JC Graphics for the posters and tickets!

We’re excited to show off a little of what we’ve been working on to give you a taste of even better things to come.

And if you’re wondering if we’re ready to accept donations, we are! The slow trickle from a few months ago has grown into a steady stream of artifacts related to Forney and Kaufman County.  Everything from agricultural tools to quilts to advertisements from local businesses have come through our doors in the past two weeks. If you have any items you would consider loaning or donating to the museum, please contact me at kmilton@spellmanmuseum.com. I’d love to hear from you.

Thank you for your interest in the Spellman Museum and in preserving local and community history. We strive to serve the people of Forney and share our story with those who visit.
