White River Valley Museum in Auburn’s Les Gove Park explores the communities and landscapes of the surrounding valley.

Historical objects and exhibitions connect local industry, migration and everyday life with the region’s changing identity.
Check the museum’s current opening days and exhibition program before arriving. Allow time for its regional stories rather than expecting a large general-interest museum. Groups, research inquiries and guided learning need separate arrangements. Mary Olson Farm is another site operated by the organization, with a different address and seasonal schedule, so verify which location your activity uses.
