The Coal Creek Miners Museum is conducting a brick fundraiser as a community-driven project aimed at supporting the renovation and preservation of the museum dedicated to the history of Coal Creek, TN, and the significance of coal mining in East Tennessee. The project aims to raise funds through the sale of personalized bricks that will be used to construct a memorial pathway at the museum. By participating in this project, individuals and organizations have the opportunity to contribute to the museum’s financial sustainability while leaving a lasting legacy in honor of a coal miner, community member, and/or business partner. The funds raised will be used for museum infrastructure, exhibits, educational programs, and maintaining the museum’s collection. Prices range from $100 to $300.
