Join us at the Oil Spring Territory to talk about the history of Oil Spring and the important part it places in Seneca history on October 17, 2026 from 10am – 3pm. This will be a part of an exhibition coming to the museum in 2027 as well as the upcoming 400-year anniversary of the first written record of oil in North America, at the Oil Spring Territory. The public is invited to create a shared artwork lead by Elia Vargas using plastic bags to make a chain/rope to reach across the territory. Bring plastic bags and a dish to pass!
If you cannot make it to the event, you are welcome to donate plastic bags at the museum to take part.
