Muskingum County History will open a rarely seen section of the Dr. Increase Mathews House Museum and showcase historic textiles, giving visitors a chance to explore parts of the collection that are not normally available to the public.
The event is part of Ohio Open Doors, a statewide program sponsored every other year by the Ohio History Connection, according to a community announcement.

Public viewing of the special exhibit will take place from 1 to 4 p.m. Sept. 10-12. Admission will be free at both the Dr. Increase Mathews House Museum and the Stone Academy Museum during those hours…
