Mission Statement: The American Museum of Straw Art shall exist to foster an understanding of the straw arts in all of its complexities, through
various exhibitions of its cultural significance, folklore, history, technique, and shall, therefore, act as an agent of research,
preservation and education to insure the survival and continuation of this artistic medium. The museum shall further acquire
international examples of straw art that are in keeping with these values. Culture shall remain a key ingredient of the collection
and the museum shall create, on a continuing basis, programs that show the straw arts in the context of the peoples who
created them.
