Centennial Celebration

Description

It’s your turn to be part of history!

On September 19, 2026, Maryhill Museum of Art marks a century since its dedication by Queen Marie of Romania, the culmination of a nationally significant royal visit in our nation’s history. Join us for a free public celebration to commemorate the event and the visionary founders of Maryhill Museum of Art. 

Conceived by entrepreneur Samuel Hill, dancer and inventor Loïe Fuller, philanthropist Alma de Bretteville Spreckels, and Queen Marie of Romania, Maryhill Museum of Art is shaped by a shared vision of art and wonder in the most unexpected location. “There is a dream built into this place,” said Queen Marie in her 1926 dedication of the museum, “a dream for today and especially for tomorrow.”

This event is a once in a lifetime opportunity to celebrate the historic royal visit culminating in the 1926 dedication of Maryhill Museum of Art. Admission is free all day, with access prioritized for registrants pending onsite parking capacity. Festive performances, food and beverages, art and children’s activities, and the museum’s galleries and scenic campus are yours to explore.
