Phillips County Museum News for Wednesday, April 10, 2024

The Phillips County Museum has reopened for the season. During the three months we were closed the upstairs underwent a facelift. The entire upper level was recarpeted thanks to Mulfinger funds and donations. Changes were made to the Saco, Dodson, Loring, Whitewater, Landusky and Zortman displays.

The wedding dress display was moved and new items were added. A travel display was organized with an old railroad map being the central focal point.

Thanks to designated memorials from the Gil Bullock family, the Military Display underwent changes.

Lori Taylor designed a plan to update the military area. New shelving to better display various military items was made by Ken Wiederrick. A section of the display honors women who supported the troops in various wars.

A research area was created for anyone wishing to go through the old ledgers and other records that are part of our historic records collection.

The Phillips County Museum is open Monday through Saturday from 10:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. Stop by and check us out.
