The
foresight of four generations has provided
our community a priceless legacy. With recent
renovations, we now have a regional museum
that measures up to any in the United States
whose mission continues to be education
in the arts, sciences, and civilizations
that follows
the vision of our founder, Levi Mengel,
who wrote:
“The
function of the Museum is to furnish food
for thought and to expand the human intellect
by bringing in contact with the senses,
the actual material whereby knowledge
may be gained direct.”
Leadership
Members are a select and valued group of
donors. They have the ability and desire
to support the Museum at a level that makes
an impact. In recognition, a wide range
of benefits including privileged access
to events and exhibits, insider information,
and invitations to exclusive social events
are available.
Our unique mix of art, science and culture
means that there is something here for everyone
to discover.
