DEMING - In a nod to preserving the rich heritage of Deming, city employees have completed the replacement of the original flooring at the Historic Deming/Luna Mimbres Museum located at 301 South Silver Street. The restoration project, which was recently finalized, involved refurbishing the building's ground-level floor, maintaining its original flooring that dates back over a century.
According to a report by the Deming Headlight published in Friday's edition, the museum's ground level boasts flooring that has endured for more than 100 years, serving as a tangible link to the town's past. Originally constructed in 1918 as the National Guard Armory, the building later transformed into a USO facility, providing solace and support to soldiers returning home from war.
The Deming Luna County Mimbres Museum, spanning approximately 25,000 square feet of exhibition space across three buildings, stands as a testament to Deming's rich history. Its vast expanse includes large outdoor exhibit spaces, further enriching the visitor experience.
One of the most remarkable features of the museum is its commitment to accessibility, with admission always being free. Visitors are encouraged to explore the museum's offerings Monday through Saturday, from 9 am to 4 pm.
For those interested in immersing themselves in the history of Deming, the museum serves as an invaluable resource, showcasing the town's evolution over the decades.
