#FlashbackFriday with the Historical Society: Museum Display in ’74 vs. Today

It’s time once again for #FlashbackFriday with the Whitewater Historical Society.

We are celebrating “50 Years at the Depot” at the museum and here is a look at the museum’s display space from when it first opened in 1974 along with a recent photograph of our display space today. The Whitewater Historical Society has spent the last 50 years interpreting the history of Whitewater in the depot museum with our varied collections. Fifty years ago we had an eclectic approach, showing our many artifacts in a variety of settings. Today, we use our artifacts and copies of our photographs to present a thematic history of Whitewater. Both approaches have brought Whitewater’s history to our thousands of visitors over the years.

Join us next week for more from the Whitewater Historical Society.
