Muchnic Art Gallery

Muchnic Art Gallery Parquet floors, stained-glass windows, hand-tooled leather and finely-carved woodwork set an impressive surrounding for the works of regional artists that change each month.

Listed in the National Register of Historic Places, a lumber merchant built this spectacular Queen Anne-style mansion in 1887 - 1888. The Muchnic family bequeathed the home to the community to be used for art purposes. The first floor is furnished as it was when the Muchnics lived here in the early 1900s.

Art exhibits that change each month are displayed on the second floor from March through November.
