Tomorrow is Small Business Saturday, so we hope you'll shop small and come by to pick up the perfect present for the history buff on your list! We're offering a 10% discount on everything in the museum store, from books to t-shirts to locally made ornaments.

Shop local to both preserve local history and support the local economy! See you tomorrow!

Happy Thanksgiving from the staff and Board of Directors here at Historic Saranac Lake, the Saranac Laboratory Museum, and the Cure Porch on Wheels.

We're thankful for all of your support throughout the year! Our work would not be possible without the volunteers, donors, and fans who help us preserve and share area history and architecture to build a stronger community. We hope you have a safe and happy Thanksgiving!

Exciting Grant News

We are thrilled to announce that we have been awarded a Smart Growth grant from the State of New York Department of Environmental Conservation to support site plan design for our expanded museum campus in downtown Saranac Lake.

This spring we acquired the Trudeau Building at 118 Main Street for expansion of our existing museum at the adjacent Saranac Laboratory. Careful site plan design will create a seamless visitor experience by integrating the two buildings and the various exhibit spaces.

See the complete press release to learn more!

To follow our progress on this exciting project, visit our website.
