While the Heritage Museum is free to visit, the ongoing restoration and preservation of our exhibits and collective of historical buildings, including the Nelson House, wouldn’t be possible without public funding through donations and memberships and our hardworking team of volunteers. Here are some ways you can support our continued efforts to share Poway’s unique heritage with the public.
