New plaster installed by Legacy Finishing Systems provides the perfect surface for a replica section of the beautiful murals in the banking hall.
The excitement continues to build as we enter the final months of transforming this vacant architectural treasure into our community's vibrant tourism center - and home to Explore Licking County!
Thanks to generous donors across our region, Licking County Foundation exceeded our June, 2024 fundraising goal of $2.1 million and secured a generous $1.1 million matching grant from the Jeffris Family Foundation. With an additional $2.6 million in state and federal historic preservation tax credits available, public support for this remarkable project is growing!
We closed out 2024 with significant progress in the building, preparing for the mural restoration, elevator installation, flooring, and reading the main spaces for the community. Get the latest by clicking on the photo above for a downloadable copy of our January 2025 newsletter featuring exciting updates and photos of recent progress. If your interest is piqued, there's still time to sign up for one of our weekly in-person, behind-the-scenes gatherings on the Sullivan’s first floor! Call Connie Hawk at 740.349.3863 ext. 105 to sign up to see the changes in real time and learn more.
The best news - we have just $2.3 million remaining to raise to finish this extraordinary project that will serve the community for decades to come! You can help save the Sullivan by making a gift here.
