Get a taste of the "old West" and Jacksonville's gold mining days when you step behind the counter of the oldest financial institution in the Pacific Northwest. The 1863 Beekman Bank Museum, located at 110 W. California Street in Jacksonville, saw over $40 million in gold cross its counters during the town’s heyday in the late 1800s—the equivalent of over $1.5 billion today. Interact with costumed docents sharing stories of late 19th Century banking practices, gold shipping, and handshake deals; step behind the counter and peer in drawers containing old checks, stage schedules, and paperwork; enter the vault that stored all those millions in gold!
Admission is FREE but donations are encouraged with all monies going towards the preservation and maintenance of this historic legacy!

Come enjoy our July art offerings this Saturday at our monthly art reception, Saturday July 4th, 1-4PM.

This July we invite you into the bold, colorful art of Claire Harkins and Nancy Sterling.

Our Guest Artist, oil painter Claire Harkins, welcomes us into her vibrant world of women, secrets, and so much color! And our Member Artist of the Month, Nancy Sterling, continues the color theme, but instead of paint on canvas, she uses sculptural elements to create gorgeous assemblage pieces.

Come down and enjoy some snacks, beautiful art, and a chance to mix and mingle with the artists. All are welcome.
