How can you be a part of the Rosson House Museum?

The Rosson House Quilt Project

Twenty five years ago the Rosson House - Heritage Square Foundation & Guild pieced together the history of Heritage Square. They joined the past with the future.

We now offer The Rosson House Museum & Historic Heritage Square guests this same opportunity. Purchase a quilt square for $5 and inscribe it however you like with fabric pens. We will then join your square with others on an antique Singer treadle sewing machine. When the quilt is finished it will be on permanent exhibit linking you to the future of Heritage Square. If ordering by mail, please send message or name you wish to be written on your quilt square (please note quilt squares are approx. 6” x 6”).

School Tour Sponsor

Children from all over the Valley participate in our educational programs from tours of the Rosson House to extended activities with hands-on segments like our upcoming theme of Turn of the 20th Century Etiquette. Unfortunately with the high cost in transportation & economic disadvantages, some schools can only visit if their trip is sponsored or fee reduced. If you or your business would like to underwrite a school tour you can do so in several ways. Your kind gift will be wonderfully appreciated and dutifully promoted on our website and school tour information if you wish.

• General donation in any amount to our field trip scholarship account.

• Sponsor a class or tour date (approx. $30 - $75).

• Souvenir Keepsake Sponsor. With rising costs, we can longer give free pressed penny keepsakes. These fun mementos cost 51¢ each.

• Underwrite a Readers’ Theatre outreach to a school or group ($60 per presentation).

• Be a Corporate Sponsor of the Education Department ($2000).

Special Event Sponsorship

Your sponsorship will be listed on our website as well as prominently posted at the event itself. Perhaps your group or business would like to volunteer at an event? It’s a great way to give back to your community, network and team build with your fellow staff.

Please join us as a sponsor of the Rosson House - Heritage Square Foundation Memorial Rose Garden.
