Museum Exhibits

Connect to local history through our various exhibits. We are constantly adding to and changing our displays as we acquire new objects and research new ideas.

Traveling Exhibits

Every three months we load up a car with some of our treasures and take to the road. We will travel to the public libraries in Rolfe, Pocahontas and Laurens to set up special displays from September to May. Look below to see what is currently on exhibit.
