Joined: January 2026.Stillwater History Museum at the Sheerar
The Stillwater History Museum at the Sheerar is housed in the 1928 building that originally was the First Church of Christ, Scientist. The Stillwater Arts and Humanities Council purchased this building with funding assistance from Leonard and Molly Sheerar in the early 1970s, and the Sheerar Cultural and Heritage Center was formed. On the lower level of the two-story building, the Sheerar Museum of Stillwater History opened in 1974. The mission of the Stillwater History Museum at the Sheerar is to collect the material culture of our community, preserve these materials, make them available for study, and share them through all effective means.

The Stillwater Public Library was founded in 1922 by the Stillwater Woman’s Club and opened in 1923. It has grown over the years to encompass a 54,400 square foot facility. Librarians maintain the tradition of providing book collections and informational programming, with the addition of the latest technological services. Since 2016 the library has been developing its archives and now has a room devoted to that purpose which holds books, documents, and photos. The main focus of Stillwater Public Library’s Special Collections is local government and the history of civic organizations ranging from nationally known groups like Rotary to local writing and gardening clubs.
