Renovation of a museum in Griffin, Georgia. Completed plans call for the renovation of a museum.

Per the owner, as of January 18, 2024, this project has been completed. Closed solicitation has been included below for reference. ……………….. Our Legacy Museum preserves and shares the historical and cultural experiences of Griffin- Spalding's African-American community. The museum will be housed in the renovated Rosenwald School Building. The 2,400 square foot exhibit space will consist of four rooms, each approximately 600 square feet, that share themed narratives of the community's history. We envision an ADA compliant space that is interactive and encourages guests to place themselves within the historical narrative to better understand the past. The discussion for site revitalization within the Fairmont community began as early as 2006, and in 2016, the residents of Spalding County passed a SPLOST directing funds toward that goal. The project culminated in the creation of Spalding County's Fairmont Vocational Heritage Park, which is anticipated to house a special events facility, a cultural arts center, and a history museum upon the park's completion. Construction on Our Legacy: The Griffin-Spalding African-American History Museum commenced in May 2021, and we anticipate opening the museum's exhibit space to the public in 2024. Firms are encouraged to ask questions about the project prior to the submission deadline. Any question asked will be answered for all for invited firms. All inquiries and answers will be posted to Spalding County's vendor registry, the Spalding County website, and the Georgia Procurement Registry for each respondent to review. Answers will be posted on Fridays at 2:00pm EST while the RFQP is active. Please submit all questions via email to Terri Bass at tbass@spaldingcounty.com.
