TRANSYLVANIA HERITAGE MUSEUM

In 2003, Tony Morrow, Director of the JBT Museum, convened a group of interested individuals and representatives from organizations in Transylvania County, and the Transylvania Heritage Coalition (THC) was formed. The THC, now the ruling body of the Transylvania Heritage Museum, was incorporated by the State of NC and a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status was received from the IRS. This means donations and other gifts are tax deductible... Transylvania Heritage Museum, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit established in 2007 and located at 189 West Main Street in Brevard NC. The Museum is open Thursday-Saturday, noon until 4 pm. The Museum opens in March and closes mid-December... On December 23, 2007, the Jim Bob Tinsley Museum closed, making the space and many assets available for the Transylvania Heritage Museum (THM). Thanks to volunteers as well as Exhibit Planner Anna Fariello of Curatorial Insight, the THM opened in May 2008. It now houses temporary and permanent displays of heirlooms,..
