The Museum comprises 14,280 square feet and over 15,000 artifacts used in Native American families, Oregon Trail migration, rural households, churches, schools, businesses, livestock production, dry-land wheat farming and conservation, military units and patriotic efforts. One-hundred of the county's 2,000 residents volunteer at the Museum. We are a unique non-profit county museum with interpretive exhibits of tools and equipment used by families in wheat and livestock production, homes, businesses, schools and churches on the Columbia Plateau, and hands-on experiences for everyone!
We are the 100 friendly volunteers at the Sherman County Historical Museum! The museum is the 1994 recipient of the American Association for State and Local History's prestigious Corey Award for vigor, scholarship and imagination... something like an Oscar for small volunteer operated museums!
