Located in Dallas, North Carolina, and driving distance from Gastonia and Charlotte, the Gaston County Museum sits at the crossroads of art and history. Its galleries house everything from local artists interpreting the world around them, to artifacts from notable moments in Gaston County history that transport you to another era. It’s a place designed for discovery.
This community curated exhibit puts the thoughts, perspectives, and stories of community members at the forefront of the exhibit curating process. Join us on the 2nd floor galleries to explore the many diverse histories of the African American Communities of Gaston County.
Step back in time as the Museum celebrates our annual Holiday Open House in Victorian style! The Historic Hoffman Hotel will be decorated for the holidays, staff will be dressed in Victorian attire, and carriage rides will leave every 15 minutes from the Daniel Stowe Carriage House in the Museum’s backyard. Join us to experience the holidays from yesteryear in the museum’s galleries, and historic hotel rooms. Enjoy the museum’s back gardens with holiday lights, hot chocolate, a visit with santa, and guaranteed snow!
