Saturday, September 28, 2019: 4-7pm
Come and see history brought to life at the 7th annual “A Night at the Museum” on Saturday, September 28, 2019, from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. You can meet costumed characters from Rice County’s past! These characters will come to life in the Rice County Historical Society’s log cabin, schoolhouse, Harvest & Heritage Halls.
Meet Alexander Faribault, town founder and early Fur Trader. Hear about life as a Rice County Sheriff from our past. Help the alter guild volunteer get the country church ready for services on Sunday. Experience a lesson in the one-room-school. Use a crank phone, learn how the steam engine works, and even find out what’s for dinner in the log cabin. Great fun for the entire family!
The event will also feature a crackling fire pit for roasting hot dogs, music, stories and more! Then from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. finish the night with more music and stories around the campfire.
Admission is: $3 for adults, $1 for those 12 and under, FREE if you come in costume! Tickets available at the door. Parking for this event is free.
