The Mississippi Sports Hall of Fame (MSHOF) and Museum in Jackson, Mississippi is proud to announce they will be undergoing a $3.5 million renovation to their facilities in 2023.
Plans include a reconfigured lobby and gift shop as well as an exterior facelift.
The MS Sports Hall of Fame first opened its doors in 1996 and this will be the largest renovation project to date on the building.
“The Museum houses the stories of Mississippi’s—and in many cases, the world’s—greatest athletes," says MSHOF Executive Director, Bill Blackwell. "We are excited to be able to upgrade the facilities for sharing these stories with our guests so they have the best experience possible.”
Senior Director of Community Relations & Marketing Andrea Patterson says a groundbreaking is forthcoming.
