Receptions and Special Activities
Whether you choose to support an event, exhibit, or education program, you and your team are part of the action with event tickets, VIP activities, or special opportunities that connect you with the community. Our organizational members join our Board, Curators, and special guests for private opening receptions of our annual Centennial Hall exhibit and our two Small Gallery exhibits.
Recognition

Tri-Cities Historical Museum’s Akeley Building is a cornerstone of the Grand Haven downtown, and receives more than 18,000 visitors annually. And, our Community Archive and Research Center is a community hub for historical exploration.

Our Triennial, Centennial, Gallery and Program Partners get discounted rates for luncheons, receptions, or fundraisers in our beautiful Centennial Hall (October- April). Your membership opens up more possibilities for the gatherings you want to host.
River Winds
With our biannual publication River Winds, members receive in-depth articles from our professional staff, highlights of the collection, and insight into current and upcoming exhibits and programs. With readers across the Tri-Cities, it’s also a great place to advertise your business, organization, event, or annual sale!
Curator's Club
Choose an honorary curatorship of one of the Museum's permanent exhibits! Your organization is recognized on our Curator's Club wall of fame in the Museum. Your support, along with other organizations', means that these exhibits can be continually refreshed....whether by restoring artifacts, reinterpreting displays, or adding new interactives.
