About us | Members of the Lander County Historical Society volunteer countless hours to provide a cultural focal point for the community, an access to the humanities, and a means to promote tourism in Lander County. The museum’s primary function is education and preservation of regional history. It also serves as a location for traveling cultural exhibits, local artists’ works, educational programs and cultural events. The Battle Mountain Cookhouse Museum is the setting for the community’s annual cookout and its wine walk. It has also hosted a variety of other presentations, including Lady Carolyn’s oral history of an 1871 dress, a writing workshop and various musical artists. Plans include featuring a local artist at the museum every two months. The Museum has featured local artists since 2013 and the Historical Society and the arts presenters are enjoying continued collaboration at the facility. |
