OUR MUSEUMS
Oregon Daughters are proud to own and maintain two museum complexes which celebrate, honor, and
preserve our state’s history. Tualatin Chapter has adopted Newell Pioneer Village as a strong focus of our
work in the community. We participate through volunteering for school tours in the spring and fall,
providing yard and garden upkeep to the beautiful grounds, and serving on various museum committees.
The Oregon DAR Museums are open to the public from March through October, and for special events in
the winter months. A visit to these historical sites is well worth the time for visitors of all ages.
