The take
Free to enter and open Thursday through Saturday, in a house that predates almost everything around it. Twenty unhurried minutes covers it, which is exactly the right size for what it's telling.
Questions people ask
How much does admission cost?
Nothing — admission is free, though donations are welcome.
How long does a visit take?
About 30 to 60 minutes for the exhibits in the 1879 Massey-Clark House.
Where do I park?
Free public parking along N. Trade Street and in nearby municipal lots — mind the posted time limits. Accessible spaces and dedicated museum spaces are behind the building.
Can I bring a group?
Yes, but book it — guided group tours need at least two weeks' notice, arranged on 704-708-4996, and group or bus parking has to be coordinated in advance too.
The school-age tour runs about 45 minutes; the tour for seniors and civic groups about 60.
