We at the Neville care deeply about making the history, science, and art we share with you, our community and visitors, meaningful. But we need your help! In these tumultuous times, we need to understand how we can best engage you virtually, when audiences will be ready to return to the museum in person, and how we can best aid in rebuilding our community after the pandemic wanes.
To learn more about how to do this, we are participating in a national survey of museum-goers, sponsored by the American Alliance of Museums. This will provide us with data from our visitors as well as nationwide results, helping us be more effective to the communities we serve in the coming months and for years to come.
The survey takes about 9 minutes to complete. As a thank you for your time, your completed survey makes you eligible to win a $100 Amazon gift card. Simply click this link to get started

This exhibit is a partnership between the Oneida Nation Arts Program, the Oneida Nation Museum, and the Neville Public Museum. The exhibit highlights the cultural legacy of basketry, pottery, and silverwork among the Oneida people. It showcases different aspects of these art forms among broader Haudenosaunee artists. The exhibit encourages the renewed interest in Native arts and culture in Northeast Wisconsin.
To put it in the Oneida language, Tetwátlatstá (day-dwa-tlats-staa), "We are going over it again." Get your tickets here today!

In September 1915, the Green Bay Art Club held its first public art exhibit in the children’s room of the Kellogg Public Library (125 S. Jefferson St.). This exhibit laid the foundation for a permanent museum in the library in 1917, which became the Neville Public Museum. Ever since then, Colony artists have held an annual art exhibit at the Neville Public Museum.
For more than a century, hundreds of women artists have been part of the Green Bay Art Colony. These women continue to inspire each other, educate the public, encourage new artists and give scholarships to art students. Styles and club rules may have changed, but the dream to keep art and culture part of the community remains the same.
This past year has been particularly challenging for everyone due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, the theme for this year’s exhibition is "Art Gone Viral". A total of 36 artworks from 25 artists were juried in by Elizabeth Meissner-Gigstead, Executive Director at the Miller Art Museum in Sturgeon Bay. These works are reflective of the personal expressions of overcoming difficulty, while remining optimistic for a post-pandemic world.
