The Finger Lakes Museum (FLM) has been in existence since 2009. The mission of the FLM is to inspire appreciation and stewardship of the cultural heritage and ecological evolution of the vast Finger Lakes region. Centrally located in the Finger Lakes region, in the hamlet of Branchport, NY, on the northwest fork of Keuka Lake, the FLM's 29-acre site encompasses a 16-acre wetland/preserve—known as the Townsend-Grady Wildlife Preserve—and a 13-acre Campus that includes a 17,000 square foot building currently under phased renovation. The FLM lives its mission by offering quality outdoor programs, while working to raise capital to build an exhibit hall and community center. There is no other place in the Finger Lakes region that tells the story of the entire region, and also educates and promotes stewardship of the diverse ecology of this vast area.

Those of you that have attended a program or event on our campus have seen our Creekside Center barn. A wonderful addition to our campus a few years ago, it is not yet complete! While we are able to host events and store our summer programming essentials in the barn, there are still many things that need to be done to make this a fully functioning space where the community can spend time with us during programs and events.

What does it take to finish out the Creekside Center? We need yards of concrete, reinforced wire mesh for the doors, tons of washed stone, sealcoating for the floor and skilled tradesman to complete the work. We hope that you will support our continuing efforts to complete the project of the Creekside Center by donating today.

By supporting our local community businesses for the materials, local skilled tradesman for completing the work, we can continue to host events and programs in an even better and more functional space while supporting the community.

We appreciate your financial support and hope that you will join us when the project is completed to see the transformation!
