Laurens County Museum Launches New Website to Connect Community with Local History

The Laurens County Museum has unveiled a brand-new website, offering a fresh and user-friendly digital experience for visitors, researchers, and local history enthusiasts. Designed to make the museum’s resources more accessible to the public, the updated site showcases the depth of Laurens County’s heritage while highlighting current programs, exhibits, and ways to get involved.

The new website features streamlined navigation that makes it easy to explore the museum’s permanent and rotating exhibits, learn about upcoming events, and sign up for newsletters or educational programs. From Revolutionary War artifacts and textile mill memorabilia to genealogy resources and children’s programming, the site brings the museum’s diverse offerings to life for a wider audience.

One of the major goals of the redesign was to ensure that community members and visitors alike could quickly find what they’re looking for—whether that’s reserving the Magnolia Room for a private event, viewing the schedule for a historical lecture series, or supporting the museum through memberships and donations.

“We’re proud to offer a digital front door that reflects the quality and passion behind the work we do,” said Teresa Noble, Chair of the Laurens County Museum Board. “This website is not only a tool for communication—it’s a way for us to invite the community into the story of Laurens County and encourage people of all ages to take part in preserving and celebrating our local history.”

The launch of the new website is part of the museum’s ongoing effort to engage with the community and promote the rich history of Laurens County. Museum leadership encourages the public to explore the site, stay connected through online updates, and participate in local events and programs.

As Laurens County continues to grow, the museum remains committed to preserving its past and sharing it with future generations. The new website is another step forward in ensuring that local history remains accessible, engaging, and relevant to all.
