Aside from just having a vast collection of historical artifacts on display, the Crisp Museum also presents a series of exhibitions throughout the year to display the creative work of talented, often local, artists.

With exhibitions rotating roughly on a monthly basis, you are certain to find inspirational, beautiful, and complex art that interests you.

Exhibition Archive

In order to keep our exhibits new and exciting, we rotate in new exhibits and thus have to archive old ones. But just because these older exhibits are put in the archive doesn’t mean they should be forgotten. Check out our exhibits from the past year in the archive below.
