DURING THE YEAR, INDIVIDUALS USE THE ORGANIZATION'S FACILITIES TO LEARN ABOUT THE RICH CULTURAL AND INDUSTRIAL HERITAGE OF THE AREA.

IN 2017, THE SCHUYLKILL RIVER HERITAGE CENTER (SRHC) WAS ABLE TO RAISE THE FUNDS TO PURCHASE THE RENAISSANCE PARK PROPERTY, LOCATED IN THE CENTER OF PHOENIXVILLE'S HISTORIC DOWNTOWN DISTRICT. THE PURCHASE INCLUDED AN EASEMENT FOR WALL ADJACENT TO THE PARK, ON WHICH THE 40' X 80' PHOENIXVILLE MURAL HAD BEEN PAINTED IN 1994. THE ORIGINAL MURAL WAS TAKEN DOWN SO THAT THE WALL ON WHICH IT HAD BEEN PAINTED COULD BE STRUCTURALLY REPAIRED. THE SRHC ALSO RAISED THE FUNDS SO THAT THE ICONIC MURAL COULD BE RECREATED. THE MURAL DEPICTS THE RICH CULTURAL AND INDUSTRIAL HERITAGE OF THE REGION AND THE SCHUYLKILL RIVER WATERSHED. IN 2019, SRHC COMPLETED THE INSTALLATION OF NEW PLANTS IN THE PARK. A NEW GATHERING PLACE WITH INSCRIBED BRICKS AND BENCHES WERE INSTALLED. A SMALL SCULPTURE WILL BE IN THE PARK.
