Come See the Many New Exhibits

The 2024 season is going to be great with so many new displays and exhibits for you to enjoy.

We are excited about the new dinosaur exhibit.  Housed in its own building, it showcases fossils found in the Roundup, MT area.

 

The new diorama shows visitors various significant historical locations throughout Musselshell County.  The surface is painted to realistically represent vegetation, water features and other conditions of the land.  The exhibit is interactive with marked locations having graphic display panels on the sides with title and description.  By pushing a button on the panel a visitor wishes to identify, the location of that particular point of interest is lit with an LED light embedded in the surface of the topographic display.

More updates:

Three small rooms have been built along the wall in the Art Room.  They house cattle drive memorabilia, and early-day barber shop, and a farm room containing farm related items.

The new coal exhibit is open.  Our thanks to Signal Peak Energy for major funding for this project.
