The special drilling through the underground ledge is complete. This week the construction team focused on shoring in preparation to construct the elevator shaft. And, if you had to look up what shoring means, you aren’t alone. It’s the process of temporarily supporting a building or structure during repairs and alternations. So, as you can see, it’s pretty important. Here are some pics of our legendary large hole with said shoring for your enjoyment. 

Meanwhile, we’re in the throes of preparing for Somerville Open Studios (SOS) weekend. This year it will be a hybrid of virtual and in-person events. The Museum will be open with our current exhibition, The Art of Observation, which showcases the work of David Campbell, a local Somerville artist. Stop by and check it out!
