Museum Membership

Some folks may wonder why "belong" to a museum? Well, we are glad you asked. By joining the Museum you become a voting member of the White River Valley Historical Society, the non-profit corporation that officially runs this museum. Benefits of annual membership vary by the kind of membership you purchase, but key to each is that you stay involved with the museum by invitations, discounts and free admission. Memberbership benefits are extended one year from enrollment date and are separate from contributions to the Annual Fund. Tax deduction amounts may be calculated by subtracting the value from the cost of a membership.
