This place is awesome. It’s got great information and a super amazing play space that was very well kept and clean. Even has a little gift shop.
Includes kids scape a small town where the kids get to run the place. They love it!
We have been attending a series "Retro Housewives", which is fun and interesting. Miss Yvonne is the presenter and she dresses and acts in '50's character. Always a treat to have her as the presenter. This last presentation was about 1950's dress and makeup.
Most of the presentations are in front of a real 1950's house which is inside the museum.
Such a wonderful museum! Loved learning the expansive history of Johnson County. They also do a good job addressing the negative aspects of the county’s history (Indian Removal Act, Housing Discrimination, etc.), as well as the positives.
