Trivia question for the day: Which Glencairn Museum gallery is now housed in the bedroom at the end
Trivia question for the day: Which Glencairn Museum gallery is now housed in the bedroom at the end of this hallway (photo from 1951)? The Raymond and Mildred Pitcairn family moved into Glencairn in 1939. Glencairn Museum first opened its doors in 1982. The first floor of the building has been preserved essentially as it was at the time of the Pitcairns, so that it may continue to serve the community as a center for educational, cultural, and musical events. Many rooms on the other floors of Glencairn have been repurposed as museum galleries in order to house the Pitcairn art collections and the former Academy of the New Church Museum holdings. -- source link
