Landis Valley Annual Fund

Making life better at Landis valley – the Landis valley annual fund is devoted to securing both unrestricted and/or pre-approved operating restricted funds for the purpose of strengthening and enhancing the overall Landis valley museum program experience. Since 1959, Landis valley associates has been responsible for giving life through hands-on experiences at the Landis valley museum. These programs may include the sponsorship of on-site interpreters and demonstrators, the securing of guest lecturers, the hiring of particular staff charged with implementing new programs, the implementation of new programs as well as implementing all manner of workshops, courses, and classes through the institute and other continuing education opportunities. Your support is critical in making new programs possible.

**Within the Landis valley annual fund, donors will be provided with ways by which the Landis valley museum can improve its impact and experience for all.**
MISSION: The Landis Valley Associates, Inc. supports the Landis Valley Village and Farm Museum, a living history museum which collects, preserves, and interprets the history and material culture of the Pennsylvania Germans of the period 1740-1940.

Working under the auspices of the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission, the Landis Valley Village & Farm Museum relies on the Landis Valley Associates non-profit entity to provide a small professional and volunteer staff to support much of the public facing components of Landis Valley Museum’s programs. One of the reasons Landis Valley Associates was established was to serve as the recipient of private contributions and to sell annual memberships in our mutual efforts to bring life to the Landis Valley Museum.

With Landis Valley Museum’s Centennial in 2025, this public-private partnership has worked together since LVA was incorporated in October, 1959. Your gifts support this endeavor. Thank you for your interest and support!

WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT TO MAKE LANDIS VALLEY MUSEUM THRIVE!
