Kicking off with the exhibition, 50 Years Ago in Silver City, the Museum invites you to join us in looking back at where we started and how far we have come. The exhibition 50 Years Ago in Silver City will immerse the visitor in the era of the Museum’s founding. The exhibition tells the origin story of the Museum and places it in the context of life in Silver City and Grant County circa 1962-1976.
