Our upcoming exhibit, which will be opening at July's Arts Alive (July 7) is called The Redwoods Provide(d): A History of Redwood National and State Parks. The exhibit will be covering a brief history of how people have interacted with the region, both sides of the controversy over the park establishment, and the effects of the park on Humboldt County. 
If you have items that you think may contribute to the story of the Parks and could be loaned to the museum for the duration of the exhibit, email Katie at caitlyn@clarkemuseum.org with information on what the item is and how it relates to the history of the park.

This exhibit is part of a larger collection of events and exhibits taking place throughout Humboldt and Del Norte Counties to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Parks establishment and the 100th anniversary of the founding of Save the Redwoods League.  The Redwood Festival of Arts and Culture will be happening throughout 2018 and is being facilitated by the Redwood Parks Conservancy.
