On Dec. 8th, The Sherman Museum will be hosting Christmas at the Museum. Patrons will receive half-priced admissions during normal 10 am-4 pm hours for all who show up with non-perishable canned goods. The Sherman Museum will then deliver the canned food to the local food pantry to aid those in need around the Christmas holidays. There will be Christmas themed arts and crafts, as well as a Christmas film, and a possible visit from the Jolly Man in Red himself. There will also be a tree in the museum gallery where guests can place an ornament that they made in the Community room.  “We really look forward to sharing the holiday spirit with the community, during both events, as well as helping those in need. We hope that there will be a great turnout for both events, because it is always wonderful to see a community that cares and works together to help aid those who are less fortunate,” says Natalie R. Bonner, Assistant Director of The Sherman Museum.

The museum’s normal business hours are Wednesday- Saturday 10 am-4 pm. We will be closed on Thursday, November 22nd- Friday, November 23rd, for Thanksgiving. We will reopen Saturday, November 24th, at regular hours.
