In the sentence, "The local museum is extending their hours for the summer."

The pronoun is their, a possessive adjective describing the noun 'hours'. The antecedent is the noun 'museum'.

The plural pronoun 'their' is used for the singular antecedent 'museum' to represent 'the people in charge of the museum'. It would also be correct to say, "The local museum is extending its hours..."
