Events
Take part in our memorable events.
Join us at the Museum!
The museum hosts several community events throughout the year. Each event is carefully put together, supports our work, and takes advantage of our waterfront locale! We hope to see you soon.
Annual Book Sale
Event Date: October 12 to November 11, 2019
We’re holding an extra-long Book Sale this year! Come browse our lightly used books, and take advantage of our sitting area.
Every year, for more than 25 years, we hold a the book sale in the museum gallery. We would gratefully receive your lightly used books, puzzles, and games! We’re especially interested in bestseller books. We regret that we are no longer able to accept encyclopaedias.
Your support of this fundraiser helps us have better exhibitions, take better care of our archival and artifact collections, and offer more tours, school programs and public events.
