About Us

Pauline Reeves Gallery
The Pauline Reeves Gallery is a designated space of the museum used to showcase exhibits that are not permanent.
We are the smallest museum but we consider ourselves the best.
Our museum staff are busy changing the exhibit in the Pauline Reeves Gallery throughout the year. Bringing a variety of stories, artifacts and pictures to the museum keeps our visitors coming back.
Events and festivals
Throughout the year the Friends of the Museum help host, promote and fund many activities, events and festivals.
