The Museum of the White Mountains (MWM) is Plymouth State University’s (PSU) only teaching museum. Presenting six exhibitions per year in the Museum’s Main Gallery, the MWM Exhibition Program also presents five exhibitions in PSU’s Silver Center for the Arts Lobby Gallery. The Museum opened in 2013 as a free admission, public, year-round museum and has served since then to explore and present the White Mountains’ rich history, arts, culture, and promising future via a variety of exhibitions, lectures, workshops, and educational activities for all ages.

Using a collaborative approach, the MWM’s exhibition program combines agendas targeting Plymouth State University students and faculty with the wider community’s and regional audience’s interests. Exhibitions often integrate visual art with regional history and environmental information, bringing multiple perspectives on landscape and culture in the region.
