Current Projects
In addition to our daily operations, there are also several special projects that you can support with an additional gift. You can make one or more of these projects a success with a generous contribution.

Hilkrest School and Tainter Playhouse Relocation

Your contribution to this project will allow us to improve the exhibits in, and restore the Hilkrest one-room school and Tainter Playhouse, recently moved to our Wakanda Park campus from the Dunn Co. Fairgrounds. These exhibits will enhance our school tours and provide our other visitors opportunities to visit the exhibits beyond the county fair dates. An additional $20,000 is needed to complete the project.
