Current OTM Programs
100 Years of Route 66 in Winslow
As part of the Winslow Centennial Committee’s and OTM’s celebration of the Centennial of Route 66, the museum has developed an exhibit, calendar, and speaker series. On November 11, 1926, the Bureau of Public Roads certified U.S. Highway 66, better known as Route 66. For the last century, Route 66 has influenced Winslow’s growth, heyday, decline, and renewal. OTM’s new exhibit, 100 Years of Route 66 in Winslow, and the 2026 historical calendar of the same name highlight the people, businesses, and sites along the city’s stretch of the iconic highway, both yesterday and today.

OTM History Highlights
OTM History Highlights, the museum’s free program series, presents speakers, exhibits, and events that highlight historical topics of Northeastern Arizona. Visit our History Highlights page for descriptions and images of all our past offerings, which were often from Arizona Humanities‘ AZ Speaks program.

Winslow Historical Society Annual Meeting
The Winslow Historical Society’s 2025 Annual Meeting took place on Sunday, November 9, at the Winslow Visitors Center. As in years past, the free event began with a reception with entertainment and include the election of new Board members and brief reports on museum activities over the past year. While there, attendees renewed their memberships, bought the latest annual historical calendar, and won wonderful door prizes donated by museum supporters. This annual celebration of our membership is a reflection of the Old Trails Museum’s community support and the backbone of our grassroots fundraising efforts. With you, we have a future; without you, we’re history!
