Douglas,[2] an exhibit of petrified Miocene trees, a Neon Garden exhibit of vintage neon lights, and a changing schedule of special exhibitions.[3] The museum collections are always available for research and study by appointment. Within the museum is the Children's Underground, a {{cvt|2,500|sqft}} interactive learning center offering museum-related educational activities and programs for children ages 5–15. The museum has a functioning replica of a late 1930s Art Deco soda fountain, called Museum Soda Fountain, that is furnished with salvaged and restored parts of authentic Yakima soda fountains.[4] The museum's great hall, a grand performance space beneath the Neon Garden, offers programs and concerts throughout the year. The museum also operates the nearby, H. M. Gilbert Homeplace (2109 W. Yakima Ave); built in 1898, this late Victorian farmhouse is now filled with period furnishings.[1] Yakima memoryIn July 2001, the Yakima Valley Library and Yakima Valley Museum began a project titled Yakima Memory to digitize approximately 9,000 photographs in two collections, and provide access to the new digitized collections via the internet.[5] References1. ^1 {{cite journal|last1=Mull|first1=Robert|title=The Yakima Valley Museum|journal=The Pacific Northwest Forum|date=1981|volume=6|issue=3|pages=22–32|url=http://www.narhist.ewu.edu/pnf/articles/s1/vi-4/yakima/yakima.html}} 2. ^{{cite news |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=qPtLAAAAIBAJ&sjid=Qu4DAAAAIBAJ&pg=4386%2C3870652 |title=Douglas library seen for Yakima |newspaper=The Spokesman Review |date=April 9, 1980 |accessdate=August 26, 2016 }} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://yakimavalleymuseum.org/description.cfm |title=Yakima Valley Museum: Museum Description |website=Yakimavalleymuseum.org |accessdate=August 26, 2016}} 4. ^{{cite news |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=EUJPAAAAIBAJ&sjid=dY8DAAAAIBAJ&pg=5281%2C2471276 |title=Takima museum installs operational soda fountain |date=January 19, 1996 |newspaper=Ellensburg Daily Record |accessdate=August 26, 2016 }} 5. ^{{cite web |url=http://yakimamemory.org/ |title=CONTENTdm Collection : Home |website=Yakimamemory.org |accessdate=August 26, 2016}} 6. ^Yakima Valley Museum website at yakimavalleymuseum.org External links
