Mark S. Goodenow Collections Storage Room Open House

In December 2023, the Lyon County Historical Society received a Minnesota Historical and Cultural Heritage Grant of $141,000 towards the implementation of a compact storage system in the basement storage room of the Lyon County Museum, 301 W Lyon St, Marshall.  A portion of funds received from the late Mark Goodenow along with donations from members supported this project.  On Thursday, October 24 from 11:00 – 2:00 and 5:00 – 7:00, there is an open house for the Mark S. Goodenow Collections Storage Room.  Get a behind the scenes tour of the storage system and renovated space along with seeing how the collection is organized and stored when not on exhibit.  For more information, contact the Lyon County Museum at 507-537-6580.
