Tuesday March 4 is Centennial Giving Day

March 4, 1925 Supreme Court Justice and former President William Howard Taft administer the oath to President Calvin Coolidge.

We have chosen this historic date of the 100th anniversary of President Coolidge’s inauguration to kick off a $400,000 fundraising campaign for a new Museum exhibit and program space.  

Thanks to generous giving and support, we have recently hired Design Division of Amherst, Massachusetts to begin the process with us of designing new engaging and thought provoking exhibits and an improved multi functional program space.  We are excited to re-imagine the Coolidge Museum as we continue to celebrate the centennial of the Coolidge administration.  

Please join with others in our community to make a difference by taking part in Centennial Giving Day on March 4. Here is how you can help with this exciting project:

  • Consider making a gift today. $100 for the 100th anniversary!
  • Share this with a friend.
  • Join a committee! The Coolidge Museum Standing Committee or one of its subcommittees- Programming, Marketing, Development or Exhibits. 
  • Recruit a friend to volunteer on a committee or as a Museum guide or for a remote research project. 
  • Share Coolidge resources with teachers and history lovers
