Mill Village Museum closes temporarily, seeks new home

EDENTON — The only museum dedicated to the history of Edenton’s working class has closed — but may reopen if organizers can find a new location for it. The Mill Village Museum, which documents the lives of Edenton’s first factory workers, closed Oct. 10. The museum, housed in the former Edenton Cotton Mill building, closed after the owners of the building sent a letter saying they needed to reclaim the space, said Beth Taylor, who is working to relocate the museum.

Taylor said the closure was not because the Mill Village Museum Association was facing financial difficulties. The museums collection of photographs, exhibits and historical artifacts has been placed in storage. “The museum items are stored in a very safe storage building,” Taylor said in response to questions from the Chowan Herald.

Taylor said no suitable replacement building has been located yet. “The museum will be reopened in another building whenever we can locate another building,” Taylor said. The museum documented the preservation of
