After nine years of sharing the stories of the West Virginia Mine Wars from a rented space, we now have a unique opportunity to create a permanent home for the Museum by buying the Cecil E. Roberts Building.
Matewan's very own UMWA Local 1440, the current building stewards, have agreed to hand us the keys once we have raised a down payment of 20% of the total building cost.
You can help make this dream a reality, ensuring the Museum's exhibits, education programs, and other work are celebrating and preserving the stories and contributions of working class people far into the future!
