OUR MISSION STATEMENT
To collect and preserve the history, both natural and human, of the local region for education,
research and public viewing in an informative, exciting and secure manner.

The Chelan County Historical Society, a 501(c )(3) nonprofit organization, was formed in 1959 with the purpose of collecting, displaying, and preserving local and regional history. This organization owns and operates the Cashmere Museum & Pioneer Village. Funding sources include donations, admission fees, gift shop sales, memberships to the society, and grants.
Funding for the operation of the museum is supported by many wonderful members and volunteers. The Friends of Old Mission is a group of volunteers who are dedicated to helping and supporting the museum.

The museum offers a fun and educational treasure hunt for children,  and a relaxing atmosphere to enjoy learning about the local and regional area.
This exceptional, world class community-owned facility, ranks among the nations finest museums. It is recognized, supported and nurtured as an extraordinary community treasure. Over 10,000 visitors from 20 countries toured the museum during the 2008 season.
