We’re busy getting ready for Opening Day in May! Choosing art, organizing volunteers, checking trails… While we do this, the Museum is open by appointment and for special events.
The trails are open from sunrise to sunset, every day—we recommend using the south trails (Spear, Discovery, Story) rather than Gale’s, Pop’s, or Bob’s, thanks to flooding last July. Trail maps and more information are available on our website, and are posted at the museum and at trail kiosks as well. (Let us know if the wind moved any!)
=== APRIL EVENTS ===

Welcome everyone!
Enjoy “Summer” Hours
Today we switch to our “open” season. The Museum is open 10 am – 4 pm, Wednesday – Sunday, every week from May to October.
Drop in or plan your visit; attend an event or wander the trails.
Check out our 2025 art exhibit, Birds and Myth: meanings, metaphors, and guides.
Of course, our trails, tree house, bird blind, and pollinator sanctuaries are open! Bring a friend and a picnic (and good shoes and bug repellent). Spend time listening for frogs and birds at the pond or for birds from the accessible tree house. Trails are open sunrise to sunset every day.
“The Gift of Art” is our off-season art show.
This often-changing exhibit displays varied works from previous shows, selections from our gift shop, and elements of our long-term collections. See how art weaves together myriad media, styles, and visions. What’s present in April may be quite different from what we had up in November, so consider a repeat visit!
Explore previous themes, find a gift for someone, and celebrate art in our lives.
Open when the Museum is : From Nov 1 – April 30, that’s by appointment and for special events. Art shows are included with admission.
