"Talbot Library and Museum is thrilled to have been able to purchase and move to the property-the Springtown Arkansas School. It was built in the early 1920's.We plan to use it for Museum displays, and community events and show the importance of these early day School buildings as places of learning as well as community activities. This will be an on-going project, and any and all assistance is always welcome! We are honored to be designated as an Oklahoma Centennial Project also, in honor of Oklahoma's Centennial Observance in 2007." The dedication and open house for the school was held on April 1st. |
