Stop by the Museum after the Parade!
Crown Point Country Historical Society’s Museum July 4th and 5th events!
Our special July 4th and 5th events include:
● We’re excited to have two new displays featured in our Indigenous exhibit. The first will showcase how Native American practices influenced the designing of our U.S. democracy. Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, and Thomas Jefferson were especially interested in the Native principles known as the Great Law of Peace. Come and learn more about this important part of American history.
● On the museum’s front lawn experience the dynamic contemporary artwork of local artist, Joseph Schneider, titled Speaking to Liberty. It is also scheduled to be displayed on the plaza of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. this September! Many may remember it from the 2010 Corbett 4th of July parade where it won the blue ribbon, or from the Oregon Art Beat episode which focused on his work. The artist’s website is josephschneiderart.com.
● Additionally, on July 4th and 5th, be sure to check out the museum’s “Front Porch Sale”. We’ll have all kinds of odds and ends for you to browse through.
We’re located at 36901 East Historic Columbia River Highway in Corbett, Oregon. We’ll be open early as you wait for the parade, and we’ll close later than usual so you can visit at your leisure.
Admission is free, donations are appreciated.
