History

The Julia A. Purnell Museum is sometimes described as a large museum in a small building. The museum has experienced significant growth in the past decade and is now poised on the brink of further expansion. The organization takes particular pride in the quality of its conservation and exhibitions as well as its efforts to engage the public with meaningful programs. As a local history museum, the Purnell Museum maintains a close relationship with the region's communities. Current projects include a focus on children's programming. Several new field trip programs have been developed for students in grades K-12. The museum's Heritage Arts After-School program for grades 6-8, held at a local middle school, is in its third year.

Oregon Museum Association 2024 Conference

Sunday, September 8, 2024 - Wednesday, September 10, 2025

The Mill Casino

North Bend, Oregon

Hosted by: Oregon Museums Association

As we gather for the Oregon Museums Association 2024 Annual Conference in Coos Bay, the conference theme “Ebb & Flow” acknowledges the nearby coastline while providing a metaphor to reflect on the work of Oregon’s museums today

It can feel like the sands are shifting as museums face challenges and opportunities like changing patterns of visitorship, evolving technologies, revised funding strategies, and peoples’ desire for community.

The 2024 conference will explore contemporary issues facing museums, so that together we can take the helm to identify solutions and successfully steer our work forward

Whether you are an emerging professional just getting your feet wet, in the mid-career flow, or an established leader navigating the depths of museum work, we invite you to join us at The Mill Casino Hotel in Coos Bay, September 8-10, 2024.
