Pritzker Military Archives Center Construction
We are excited to announce that we are in the final stages of unveiling the Pritzker Military Archives Center (PMAC) to the public. While the construction of the Pritzker Military Archives Center is complete, landscaping will be finished in the spring, when the remaining grass seeding can be placed during prime planting season.
Despite construction being completed, the Museum & Library will not begin to move artifacts, books, and historical objects into the center until April 2023. Industry standards for archive facilities require a minimum of 90 days for acclimation before any artifacts can be moved into the facility for safe storage. This waiting period ensures that the building performs correctly and that all building materials have off-gassed appropriately, ensuring the Museum & Library’s collection is in the safest environment possible.
To keep up with the latest updates from the PMAC, please stay tuned to our website and check your email regularly. We look forward to hosting a grand opening for the entire community in early 2024.
