Greetings!
Spring has sprung, and the flora and fauna of Jackson Hole is waking from winter. 

April at the Museum typically means we can expect to see our resident marmots and the last chance that our visitors have to enjoy the Museum's winter exhibitions prior to the opening of our summer shows.

As always, the Museum offers a full schedule of exhibitions currently including The Natural World: Photographs by Thomas D. Mangelsen and Collection Spotlight: Rosa Bonheur and the European Tradition

Although the Museum is open daily during the month, April is a time to prepare for our busy summer season, so please note the following closures: The Rising Sage Café will be closed April 5 - 18 for spring cleaning and the Museum Shop will be closed April 27 - 29 for inventory.

This month, you have an opportunity to win a beautiful wall quilt from Stitch 'n Time by participating in the Invite a Friend to Join membership campaign.  See details below.

See you soon at the Museum!
