Due to planned construction on the Glendon Hill Road Bridge, the National Canal Museum will operate on a shortened schedule this year. Our 2026 season will run from Friday, March 27 through the end of May. Public canal boat rides will not be offered during the 2026 season.

Where Creativity Flows: Two Centuries of Art Inspired by Our Canals

National Canal Museum - Where Creativity Flows: Two Centuries of Art Inspired by Our Canals
To celebrate the last months of Where Creativity Flows, we invite you to join our
Community Exhibit Photo Contest, and Canal Creations Drawing Contest

The canals of Eastern PA and Western NJ not only changed the course of our nation’s history; they also provided a natural source of inspiration for our nation’s artists. Our 2020-21 exhibit, “Where Creativity Flows: Two Centuries of Art Inspired by Our Canals,” exhibits historic and contemporary artworks, novels and children’s books, folk art, and film that capture the history and timeless beauty of canal life.
