ROCK HILL, S.C. — York County's Culture & Heritage Museums’ sites are set to reopen their doors with new experiences and fresh ways to explore the cultural and natural history of the Carolina Piedmont. 

As the Center for Disease Control (CDC) relaxes safety protocols, CHM said it's ready to welcome the return of visitors to its physical sites. 

Before planning a visit, guests are encouraged to review up-to-date information for each site’s hours of operation and admission procedures on CHM’s website, chmuseums.org, as schedules continue to vary.
