KELSEYVILLE >> The Ely Stage Stop & Country Museum, operated by the Lake County Historical Society, will be closed Saturday, September 30, due to its presence in the Pear Pavilion of the Kelseyville Pear Festival. Come by the Pear Pavilion instead that day to talk to museum docents about their current displays and activities.
The museum’s stage coach replica will be in the parade this year.
The museum will be open again on Sunday, October 1 to host our monthly Fiddlers’ Jam. This free, family friendly, fun-packed day can be enjoyed by all, young and old alike. As usual, musicians will jam from noon to 2 p.m. inside the barn. Enjoy music, refreshments, and the opportunity to browse displays in the museum and in the barn and on the grounds.
The museum is located at 9921 Hwy 281 (Soda Bay Road) in Kelseyville (near Clearlake Riviera). Normal hours of operation are 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. each Saturday and Sunday. Fiddlers’ Jams occur the first Sunday of every month from noon until 2 p.m. Living History events featuring local historians are held on the fourth Saturday of every month beginning at noon.
