“Very Well Done!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed May 23, 2012 NEW

This was my first visit to the museum, and I found the interesting short introduction video, activated by the opening front door, to be informative and made me eager to see the exhibits. The displays were unique, professionally done and included a great mix of static, audio and interactive features. A great variety of topics was depicted over time--from early... More

After hearing about the renovation and new displays, my wife and I had the opportunity to revisit the Andrew County Musuem. It had been at least 15 years since we had been there. We were totally amazed by the new layout and the professional quality of the exhibits. The museum does an excellent job of telling the story of the... More

I thought the artifacts were displayed well and you could tell a lot of time was put into making the museum. I don't think the questions were as good as they could have been. They didn't meet up with the standards of the artifacts. There was a lot of reading that had to be done to figure out what you... More

Each of the American History teachers took their classes over to the museum for a wonderful "scavenger hunt" early in the school year (September). The museum staff and volunteers had put together some questions and information for the students... More
