Wonderful, quirky place with all sorts of neat stuff. I could spend a week in there. Very nice custodians, but it's pretty much a 'go see it and figure it out' place. As I recall the lighting is sometimes not good enough to make it easy to read the information tags on the exhibits. Definitely worth visiting.
Local home-town museum. Lots to look at. Probably too much! Some displays are really well-done (especially the fresnel lens). Others are somewhat hodgepodge, but that's typical of a home-town museum. They even use the space in jail cells for display. A few of the displays are not easy to see because you are blocked off, or the display is behind reflective glass or behind jail cell bars. But for the price, this is a pretty nice museum.
Friendly, knowledgeable and passionate volunteers greet you at the front door with a smile and map. Wonderful collection of artifacts from all the cultures that formed the local area. Kids also enjoyed looking at the past, it gave them an appreciation of their current circumstances.
Lack luster museum. Not very handicap friendly as half of the museum is upstairs. They ask for a $3 donation for a “guided tour” then after taking your $3 a head spend 60 seconds or less telling you “this is here, that is there, explore on your own.” That being said as I opened one of the first binders to read about town history I saw a gigantic spider ud83dudd77 then told the staff who literally did nothing. There are a few cool historic items to look at but nothing amazing. If you got $3 and some time to kill worth a shot.
A very interesting,wonderful museum.Highly recommend a visit here!! Staff are very knowledgeable and great to visit with!! Nice displays with awesome history!!
