Prohibition Party is this Friday, January 19!
The Prohibition Party is quickly approaching! Head on down to the Museum January 19 for 1920s-era music, costumes, signature cocktails, dancing, hidden speakeasies around the Museum and more.
Attendees can also look forward to unique beverage tasting experiences with local favorites like Crux Fermentation Project and Crater Lake Spirits! This year’s celebration will examine how spirits, beer and wine were crafted “then” as a lens through which we can appreciate how alcoholic beverages are made “now” in Central Oregon.
All the while, vintage textiles, newspapers, photographs, books and more presented by the Deschutes Historical Museum will further reveal Central Oregon’s interesting and complex history during the Prohibition era.
Space is limited — get your tickets today at the link below! The Prohibition Party is a 21+ event.

One Month Left to Experience Wolves: Photography by Ronan Donovan
The sun is setting on your chance to get behind the lens with a National Geographic explorer and photographer in Wolves: Photography by Ronan Donovan — closing on February 11.
The stunning exhibition, created by the National Geographic Society and the National Museum of Wildlife Art in Jackson, Wyoming, features Donovan’s images and videos of wolves in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem and on Ellesmere Island in the high Canadian Artic.
Since 2014, the National Geographic Explorer and photographer has examined the relationship between wild wolves and humans to better understand the animals, our shared history and what drives the persistent human-wolf conflict.
