The Apron Affair is in conjunction with the Museum’s food-themed temporary exhibits this year.

KEY INGREDIENTS: AMERICA BY FOOD just closed; this Smithosinian Institution Travelling Exhibition explores the connections between Americans and the foods they produce, prepare, preserve, and present at the table.

Coming in February is PENINSULA EATS!: DINE AT THE SOURCE, an exhibit which compliments Key Ingredients by exploring the traditions of food on the Long Beach Peninsula. This region has long been the source of good eating both for residents and visitors.  Known for our fresh oysters, salmon and the popular razor clams people have long flocked here to partake of the local bounty.  Included in the show will be artifacts related to home cooking, food production and the well respected restaurants that have brought visitors to our area for generations.

We hope to see you there!
