Museum Open House: Free Admission & Scavenger Hunt

WALLA WALLA-On April 1, 2023, the Fort Walla Walla Museum invites the public to enjoy free admission to the museum. The Museum Open House is a chance for area residents to come see what's new at the old fort.

With five exhibit halls and a pioneer settlement with 17 structures, there's something for everyone. Learn about the territorial prison, horse-era agricultural practices, the history of the Forts Walla Walla, and more.

Informational booths will also share information about how to become further involved with the Museum, including membership and volunteering opportunities.

April 1 also happens to be the first day of the museum's month-long April Fool's Scavenger Hunt, so make sure to bring the whole family. Hunt for the modern items hidden in some of the museum's exhibits. Visitors who list them all earn a prize from the Museum Store. The hunt is a fun and active to view the exhibits and identify some things that don't quite belong.

Fort Walla Walla Museum would like to thank the event sponsor, Community Bank.

The Museum is located at Fort Walla Walla Park at 755 NE Myra Road, Walla Walla. The museum is open from 10am-5pm. The calendar with other upcoming events at fwwm.org/all-events. For more details, call 509-525-7703 or visit fwwm.org.
