John W. Jones Museum grows impact with addition in Elmira. When it opens
A project to expand the size of a museum honoring one of Elmira's most prominent citizens — a plan that formed a few years ago as an idea with no funding behind it — will become reality this spring. After more than 20 years in the planning stages, the vision of turning the home of escaped slave John W.

In 2023, museum officials announced plans to build an addition behind the original museum building that would more than double the available space, but they didn't have the money to make it happen. Thanks to the City of Elmira, Chemung County and several other donors, including Corning Incorporated Community Impact & Investment, New York State Council on the Arts, and the Community Foundation of Elmira/Corning and the Finger Lakes, the museum was able to raise $1 million for construction of the new education and cultural center. That work got underway in October, and the addition is quickly taking shape. "We got $250,000 from the city and $350,000 from Chemung County," said
