History

In early 2002, the Sheridan County Historical Society began a project to improve the accountability and care of its artifact collections. Community support encouraged the Society to explore the possibilities of once again establishing a museum for Sheridan County. In 2004, the Society opened the new but very small Sheridan County Museum on Alger Avenue and quickly outgrew the facility. The following year, the Society received an offer it couldn't refuse to purchase a building to house a new museum. In about 13 months, with much community support, the Society raised over 1.5 million dollars to purchase and modify the building. The new Sheridan County Museum opened on July 1, 2006.

Specialties

The Mission of the Sheridan County Museum is: * To maintain the collections and exhibits pertaining to the history of Sheridan County and the closely related surrounding area and communities; * To develop and implement education plans for both children and adults to help educate our citizens on the rich historic and cultural heritage of our area; and * To responsibly care for the artifact collections which are held in trust for the benefit of the present and future citizens of Sheridan County.
