Treat yourself to a Museum visit during this long President’s Day weekend! There’s so much to spark wonder.
Discover the “Latest” Fashions
Can you imagine putting on up to six layers of clothing each day? In 1904, that’s exactly what you did. With the help of your local dressmaker, you would look comfortable, fashionable and functional.
Learn more about the era’s fashions from the characters at the 1904 Miller Ranch this Saturday, February 19 from 11am-1pm. It’s a step back in time!

Imagine a Different World
If you could create your own world, what would it look like?
For generations, people have journeyed to the High Desert and Western United States with their own visions of an idyllic society. The Museum’s original exhibit Imagine a World explores the history, ideas and art of intentional communities — from the glass domes of Arizona’s Biosphere 2 to Rajneeshpuram in Central Oregon.
