Programs at the Museum for All Ages
We love telling Palmer’s story through local history and art! Beyond our exhibits, the Palmer Museum offers tours of the historic district, hosts local storytelling events, and coordinates displays of local art in the community. Throughout the year, we also offer exhibit receptions, host artist workshops, and strive to connect visitors to our culture and story.

Cyanotype Workshops
Explore the world and history of cyanotypes with one of the easiest printing techniques you can do at home without expensive equipment or a darkroom. At each workshop, select 3 photos from the historic photo collection and make 3 cyanotype prints.

Youth Art Workshops
The Palmer Museum is offering several FREE summer arts workshops for
youth. Spots are limited: sign up in advance to ensure your seat! Each class will have a specific art project that participants can complete on site during one session. We have several courses for younger children, and several for older. Each class will be held on the lawn at the Palmer Museum and Visitor Center. Classes are free, and all materials are provided.
Palmer Wine Walk
Each year, 300 lucky guests walk with us around Palmer, sampling wine and celebrating our town at participating local businesses. It is a great time to put on some walking shoes, grab a group of friends, and enjoy various wines and shopping! The Wine Walk is an annual fundraiser for the Palmer Museum.
Artist of the Week
Each Friday from June to August, come to a meet and greet with a local Valley artist and see their work on display. Ask them questions and get a first-hand experience of their art.
