| ***** | This is a wonderful place full of oddities! It is a gem of a museum with everything from stuffed animals to baskets to a printing press to a fabulous rock and mineral collection. I love this place. It is a funky collection of human and animal things. very fun. | Female between 26 and 55 | 05-17-08 |
| ***** | Stone fish, dinosaur poop, dazzling butterflies, Meso-American tools/weapons, Impressionist dioramas, Victorian furniture, brilliant birds, summer fine art exhibits. Audio-visual history. Part of my own growing up & now fun
to work in as a volunteer in my 7th decade. An archive of
Americana and a National Historical site. Best when full of kids going Ooh! and Aah!!and "Oh, LOOK!!" Bring lunch!
