Gourd Museum

Gourd Museum is located in the Angier Municipal Building. This is the same building as the Angier Library. This Gourd Museum was established in 1964 by Marvin and Mary Johnson on their homestead just off of NC Hwy 55 between Fuquay-Varina and Angier in the Kennebec Community just opposite of the Fuquay-Angier Airport.  Marvin, long-time president of the North Carolina Gourd Society, founded the museum. Nephew Mark Johnson, who lived next door, owned and operated the museum for many years inside this small white building.
