Displays are changing periodically and often include artwork featured on national tours. ^[1] The museum has hosted art collections from artists such as Howard Brodie, David Rose and Elizabeth Williams. ^[2] It was previously located in an old library on W.

Exhibitions here have included oil paintings, prehistoric pottery, quilts, photographs, sketches and print making. Its store offers folk art, literature and jewelry. ^[5]
