Centennial Caplets - Maryhill Museum - Columbia Gorge

Share your Maryhill Memories, Shape Our Legacy

Your gift of $100 for a centennial caplet is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to share your Maryhill memories with your children’s children and tomorrow’s leaders.

Shape the legacy of Maryhill Museum of Art by including mementos such as letters, photos, and handwork that helps future generations discover what the museum represented to you.

The Centennial Time Capsule will be buried on November 14, 2026 to celebrate 100 years since the museum’s dedication, and will be opened when our descendants celebrate 200 years of Maryhill Museum of Art in 2126.
