Rhea Organ


The Association is pleased to announce the donation of another major collection - Richard “Dick” Rhea of Sharon Springs has donated the Rhea Antique Pump Organ Collection to our Museum! We are excited to bring another dimension to the Fort Wallace Museum and are so grateful to the entire Rhea family for the product of nearly 30 years of Dick’s treasured hobby. The Pump Organ Collection has been housed in the Sharon Springs Main Street building since 2003; the 55+ pump and reed organs will now go into storage for a period of time, and the Memorial Association will commence another building project! A new Rhea Pump Organ Building Fund has already been established and we welcome input and Donations as we create a new home for this one-of-a-kind collection! Building Fund Goal is set at $150,000.  Donation can be sent to the address below in the contact area or through PayPal.  Please designate the use of your gift. musuem
