The Massillon Museum preserves more than 100,000 artifacts, mostly donated by individuals and families in the community. This means that only 5% of our collection is ever on display at one time. In order to present as much of the collection as possible, the Museum rotates exhibits in its Main Gallery and Second Floor Galleries. Below is a list of current and upcoming exhibits. Please use the navigation at the right to explore all the exhibits the Massillon Museum has to offer. If you would like to read about previous exhibits, please click here.
