Permanent Exhibits

We built our new home in 1973 when we moved here from the basement of the county courthouse. In 1983 the Agricultural Wing was added to the building. The conceptual work was done by local artist, Charles Beck, who worked with numerous volunteers to create these wonderful exhibits.
