FUTURE, PRESENT and PAST: Opportunities coming up to participate, celebrate and support historical society
If you’ve attended events, viewed exhibits or sought help at the Finney County Historical Museum over the past year, you’ve probably encountered some images and information from earlier times, and even a character or two from the 20th or 19th Century.If you haven’t, there are still a few opportunities ahead before Auld Lang Syne.We were, for instance, able to bring author Mark Twain “back to life” for an evening in the past, portrayed by veteran reenactor Ken Church; attract nearly 3,200 visitors at the 15th annual Flea Market Festival, with people arriving from 40 towns for art, crafts, food, collectibles, antiques and other items; and provide classroom visits, tours, presentations and museum experiences to over 5,000 children in the Finney County Historical Society’s year-round education program.We were also able to host Doug Adams of New Providence, Penn.
