New exhibit in the Dairy Building

A new permanent exhibit about the dairy industry and Bishop Hill Colony has recently been installed in the Dairy Building.  This project was partially funded by the Swedish Council of America.  This exhibit include  photographs and Colony artifacts.  The display will be open for viewing during public programs in the Dairy Building or by appointment.  So this year, when you come to see one of the many programs hosted in the Dairy Building, please check out this brand new exhibit as well.

Also, the BHHA would like to thank the following people.  A big thanks to Cheryl Dowell for her assistance with the research and for her proofreading of the text panels.  Thank you to Deni Menken for her help with the title board.  Thank you to Janet Kenyon for providing photographs and other information.
