Please note that both of our museums will be closed on Saturday, May 23, so that our volunteers may spend Memorial Day weekend with their families.

We hope everyone has a safe and meaningful holiday weekend as we remember and honor those who gave their lives in service to our country. 🇺🇸

We look forward to welcoming you back next week at the Dillingham-Lewis House Museum and the Blue Springs Chicago & Alton Depot Museum!
