Show Notes
Those used to the lush rainforests of western Oregon might be tempted to think there’s little to see on the more arid side of the Cascade Mountains. The High Desert Museum is here to prove that notion wrong.
Located just south of Bend, the museum has spent the last 40 years introducing visitors to the nature, art and people of eastern Oregon.
On this week’s episode of Peak Northwest, we speak to Dana Whitelaw, executive director of the museum, about the permanent and rotating exhibitions, as well as the resident animals that make the museum so special.
Here are some highlights from this week’s show:
- What can visitors expect to find at the High Desert Museum?
- There are a lot of animals who call the museum home.
- The museum won a prestigious award in 2021.
- New exhibitions are coming to the museum all the time.
