A Taste of History 2026: Fundraising Gala
Friday, September 18, 2026 from 5:30PM to 8:30 PM
Join the Yellowstone County Museum and our annual sponsors at the Edwards Jet Center for an evening celebrating local history with music, food, and good friends. All funds raised will go towards achieving our 2026-2027 goals. To learn more about sponsorship opportunities, the recent successes of the Museum, and upcoming projects, click the box below.
Attendees can park on the road west of the Museum. There will be cones to indicate where. After touring the Museum (10 to 30 minutes), we have classic cars and golf carts to transport folks on the ~one-minute drive to the Jet Center. We should wrap up around 8pm. Transportation back to the Museum will be available all evening.
Event starts at 5:30 PM at the Museum (1950 Terminal Circle) with music, light hors d’oeuvres, and the Taste of History signature cocktail. After touring the Museum, transportation will be provided from the Museum to the Edwards Jet Center (1565 Aviation Place) for a program, dinner, drinks, and more music.
