After almost 21 months of hurricane repairs, rebuilding, reinstalling exhibitions and closure due to Covid-19, the Core Sound Waterfowl Museum & Heritage “at the end of the road” Harkers Island is now open. Our Community Outreach location in Downtown Morehead City, 806, is also open.

We are following all social distancing guidelines set forth by Governor Cooper at both locations. We will be scheduling events and programs at both locations once gathering-limitations have been lifted. Check our facebook page and this website for updates.
