Downtown Goldsboro Artifact Recovery Project

Center Street is currently undergoing a complete makeover. As the street is torn up, volunteers are looking through the tons of dirt, searching for objects covered up more than 80 years ago when Center St was first paved. Many of these objects will eventually be on display here at the museum.

Check out the project's Facebook page to keep up with what's been found and find out how to volunteer to help.
