Welcome to the Ward Museum

Summer is upon us! Come to the Ward Museum for a fun-filled day of learning about wildlife, both outside in our pond and in our galleries. Join us as we showcase the two new additions to our waterfront facility with a ribbon cutting ceremony and open house on June 15, 5-7 p.m & June 17, 10-1 p.m..

Join us on the third Saturday of each month for Drop In Art, a family art program that is fun for all ages. The Education Team also hosts Drop In Art Jr., a FREE program held every Wednesday for smaller children to learn about nature and make crafts! If you are interested in birding, be sure to check out our eBird Tuesdays, where you can join Ward Museum education staff, Salisbury University students and faculty, and local birders in the data collection of migrating bird populations.

Be sure to check out all the new events and programs coming your way. Wine, Beer & liquor pairings, Girl Scout & Boy Scout badge classes, and Art & Nature Photo Festival to name a few. For a complete monthly list of upcoming museum events, please look at our program calendar.

During your visit, browse Treetops Gifts which boasts unique, regional artisanal items such as jewelry, soaps, children’s toys, decoys and home decor. When you shop at Treetops, you support local business, your community, and a 501(3)c organization. You can shop online too, but for the best selection, stop in for a visit.

We are now taking reservations for summer camp for youth. Check out the Ward Museum this summer.
