Called the Directors Basement Sale, this is a fundraiser for the North Clark Historical Museum and it runs from noon to 4 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, Aug 22-23
Household items, toys, a woman’s bicycle, old tools, brass art, a small desk, a dog kennel and more will be on sale at the Directors Basement Sale at the North Clark Historical Museum in Amboy.
This is a fundraiser for the NCHM put on by the board of directors, with a portion of the sales going to the museum’s general operating expenses.
Tickets for the 2025 Museum Raffle Quilt are $1. The quilt was made by the Chelatchie Quilters. Proceeds from the raffle go to the capital improvement fund for upkeep and repairs on the building, including a new roof.
There is no admission fee, and organizers want to emphasize during this heat wave that the museum has air conditioning. Donations are also appreciated.
North Clark Historical Museum is in upper Amboy at 21416 NE 399th Street in the renovated 1910 United Brethren Church. The museum was incorporated in 1988 and opened to the public in 2000.
