The Atlantic Coca Cola Museum is set to move from their current armory location to a new building later this summer. Dolly Bergman with the Coca-Cola Museum says the move will give the museum much more room to work with compared to the armory.

The museum’s new location will be at the old Atlantic Locker building. Bergman says the museum should fit in well at that building. She also hopes that the museum will be able to be open more with a bigger location.

But the move will have an impact on when the museum is open. Bergman says they will be forced to close for a period of time in September and October. The plan is to re-open when the Christmas Grand Lighting takes place in Atlantic.

Anyone who wishes to help with the move can call the Atlantic Area Chamber of Commerce for more information.
