The History Center of Traverse City is temporarily suspending its
operational hours effective today (Monday) while the nonprofit's board
of directors works to determine the long-term fate of the organization.
History Center board members
notified
city officials last month they could not keep up with operational costs
for the city-owned Carnegie Building and were terminating their lease
agreement with the city. The termination meant the History Center would
need to vacate the Carnegie Building by November 15, with responsibility
for the building and the city's Con Foster collection reverting to the
city. An ad hoc committee of the city commission is now in the process
of reviewing long-term options for the property, including scenarios
which would allow the History Center to stay and/or possibly share the
space with the
newly merged Crooked Tree Arts Center Traverse City.
