We Need Your Support!

Help us continue our mission of preservation and education by supporting our efforts to offer our exhibits, open to the public, at no charge. The Meeker Museum attracts people from all over Central Ohio. Currently, the museum is open by appointment, following strict safety practices and we hope that at some point later this year, we can reopen following our regular schedule.

Our Museum Exhibits “Bring History to life”

Sponsorships are available for our permanent exhibits in the Meeker Museum:

  • Delaware Chair Company Chairs
  • American Indians
  • Spinning and Weaving
  • A Pioneer Bedchamber

For 2021, we will have three rotating exhibits that are also available for Exhibit Sponsorship:

  • Garth Auction Business Exhibit – located in the Garth Room, this exhibit will tell the story of Garth Oberlander and Garth’s Auction, which was located on the current Meeker property from the 1940s until 2018.
  • Meeker Story Wall – located on the Meeker Drawing room wall, this exhibit will tell the story of the Meeker family.
  • Summer Photo Exhibit – Portraits of Delawareans
