We're open today until 5pm so come on in and see the amazing artifacts in our Museum! One such artifact is a portion of the salvaged Lehigh Canal Barge No. 249. Restored over the course of 5 years under the devoted leadership of the President of the Tri Boro Sportsmen Club, it was later donated to the Mauch Chunk Museum and Cultural Center. You can learn more about the salvage and restoration efforts through either an in-depth tour with one of our knowledgeable guides or through a self-guided tour.

Upstairs in our Ballroom space we have a FREE art exhibit by Ibiyinka Olufemi Alao - Artist Page featuring his 100 foot painting and other pieces of his artwork. There will be art prints and original artworks for sale; part of the proceeds will help support Mauch Chunk Museum programming. The exhibit will run until Sunday, September 28, 2025 | 11am - 5pm.
