Morris' General Store, A Family Legacy
​
This exhibition celebrates the Morris General Store and its enduring impact on our East Coast communities and the region's development. The store offered a wide range of goods and equipment essential for a rural community.
​The Morris family have been active members of the East Coast community since the 1860’s, and the building itself has become an iconic East Coast landmark.
