With the 31st annual Black Swamp Arts Festival going on this weekend starting, we wanted to share part of a past exhibit that we had here at the museum. This photo was featured in our 2020 exhibit "Utopia: A Visual Storytelling of Our Home", photos by Taylor Houpt Ayres/Watch Owl Media.

#poorfarmfriday - Opening in 1857, the Athens County Infirmary farm was 139 acres with a one-and-a-half-acre garden and three-acre orchard. The original main building was two-story-brick L-shaped structure containing 20 rooms with 20 beds... In 1905, a new building was completed to accommodate 100 residents.... It operated as an infirmary until 1997, the facility is still owned by the county and is currently home to Athens County Job and Family Services.

To read more about the Athens County Infirmary, visit the award-winning "For Comfort & Convenience" exhibit!⁠ You can also read about all the infirmary buildings in our "Ohio's Infirmary Buildings" book, by Holly Hartlerode Kirkendall.

This exhibit was made possible with support from Ohio Arts Council & Ohio Humanities.
