North Clark Historical Museum, located in upper Amboy (at 21416 NE 399th Street), is in the renovated 1910 United Brethren Church. The Museum was incorporated in 1988 and opened to the public in June of 2000.
The Museum will be open Saturday, July 9th, 11:00 am to 4:00 pm, and on Sunday, July 10th, from Noon to 4:00 pm, and will feature a Territorial Days exhibit.
The exhibit includes pictures, memorabilia, and stories of Territorial Days through the years. The event was started in 1961 to celebrate the 75th Anniversary of the Amboy Post Office. It was such a success it has continued annually. In 2021, the celebration returned with a parade and a few events at the park on Saturday. This year it is roaring back with three days of activities!
North Clark Historical Museum will also be honoring Frank Emerick with a balloon art installation and memory boards. Mr. Emerick, who managed the twelve-year Museum renovation and served on the Board of Directors for many years, passed away last month.
