Clarke Historical Museum
Clarke Historical Museum, County history museum in Old Town Eureka, United States.
The Clarke Historical Museum occupies a former bank building with a glazed terra-cotta facade, ionic columns, and a balustraded parapet above the cornice.
Founded by high school teacher Cecile Clarke, who sold her family sheep ranch in 1960 to acquire the Bank of Eureka building for her collection.
The Nealis Hall section holds Native American artifacts from Northwest California tribes, including extensive collections of basketry, regalia, and ceremonial objects.
The museum operates Wednesday through Saturday from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM, with closures during January for maintenance and collection care.
The museum contains one of the largest collections of Native American basketry from Northwest California, representing Wiyot, Yurok, Karuk, and Hoopa traditions.
