MASONRY - HERITAGE AND TRADITIONAL PROGRAM
MISSISSIPPI TEXTILE MUSEUM 
Each year, in the final two weeks of the Masonry - Heritage and Traditional program, students apply skills learned in theory and their shop classes to an actual restoration project. This year the students worked on the Mississippi Textile Museum located in Almonte, Ontario.
The Mississippi Textile Museum, once part of the Rosamond Woolen Mill complex, is comprised of a Warehouse, built in 1872 and a Counting House built in 1904. The building has been recognized both by the Canadian Historic Sites and Monuments Board as having national historic significance and has also been designated by the local Municipality of Mississippi Mills. The Museum is a two storey masonry structure constructed of locally quarried limestone and is now being used as a Textile Museum.
