The bond between a pet and owner / parents is something unique. Pet portraits attempt to capture that cherished bond. In this year’s Monmouth Museum Holiday Exhibition, “Petopia”, the Main Gallery will be filled with pet paw-traits of man’s best fur-ends as well as en-deering depictions of creatures big and small covered in fur, feathers and scales to celebrate the loving bond we have with our pets as well as the universal affection for the natural beauty and majestic power of all animals.

 

The Museum’s Model Train Display features tiny people forever frozen in their everyday activities, creating a still universe brought to life by passing trains. There are buttons that can be pushed by young kids and the young at heart for an interactive activity, as doors open, and whistles blow. Come to explore the sights and sounds of train travel, step back and remember your childhood, and learn about railroading.

Sundays: 12:00pm – 5:00pm
