Some restored artifacts from Midland County are waiting for a new, drier home

Most of the Midland County recovered from the devastating floods of 2020.

It has been five years since the Midland Historical Society sent over 400 archive foot Nasser but freezer -dried historical assets to Prism Specialties Art in Livonia from the Doan History Center in Midland.

Prism reduced damaged or almost destroyed works of art or archived documents. Many of the parts were saved from flood damage and some are still being worked on.

Jake Huss, manager for historical programs and exhibitions at Midland Historical Society, said that the long recovery was justified.

“Immediately after the flood, the hospital hit us on Prisma to recover things,” he said. “But if there is a place, you can't be angry that it is the fact that you have waited the hospital first.”

The materials of the Doan Center were placed in a keyword and took a few months before Prism started. Archived materials that were quickly restored were quickly brought to warehouse. You will sit there until your new home is built.

Huss said you will hopefully have a new house on the second floor in the Midland Center for the Arts by December 2026.
