Free parking. Cost is 5 bucks unless you are a 60 plus senior. Two levels inside of exhibits that are pictorial and material both. Exhibits for this season appear to be on the Oregon Country Fair history, early Eugene history, and an educational exhibit on what constitutes kitsch from an historical perspective. An interesting part of Eugene history is we had one of the first examples of the TV Dinner being marketed, made and distributed here a short time before Swanson took it up, and examples of their packaging were on display.There are also interactive exhibits on display that museum goers can manipulate or pose nearby, and yes, cameras are ok. No flash though!

A lady friend wanted to know if I would like to go to the museum.? Sure. I didnt even know this was there or existed. There was real stage coaches, model Ts, pictures of Eugene in the late 1800`s. It was very interesting, I think admission $5.00, veterans free. Brought back many memories

Very pleasant staff with some cool artifacts like the old cars and trucks. I just wish that there was more to the museum. There is a lot of history in Lane County and it didnt seem represented in such a small space. Little gift shop with local history books.

We were there on a busy fair day. The docent still took the time to visit with my husband and myself. We felt very appreciated.

The people that take care and run this Museum , are wonderful! They have a lot of intresting and historic artifacts. I really appreciate how clean and well kept the building was and how well they kept the artifacts on display. Ultimately they do need more volunteers and or more people with experience with historic artifacts! I recommend if anyone that even a little intrested in see how a museum work or even just intrested in helping preserving our local history call them, they would really appreciate it.

Not a big museum whatsoever, but well-curated and interesting. Can improve with more tactile, experiential exhibits
