Cornucopia crammed with yields of an abundant harvest of food and contemporary table setting of fine china and flatware on linens of delicate handiwork preparatory to a bountiful feast set the scene for a Thanksgiving Day celebration. A portrait of an ancestral Native American astride his horse and with outstretched arms paying homage to the Great White Father completes the Valley Falls Historical Society museum display.
Individual military service flags, war-time hand weapons, medals of honor, military headgear, and photos of Valley Falls peace celebrations on display in the museum veterans window honor all veterans past and present on Veterans Day, November 11.
Notice if you will, that timed spotlights now draw attention to the museum and its window displays in the early hours of the evening. This is a new addition.
Anna Irwin, Lucile Smerchek, and Dalene Senn will be museum hosts Saturday, Nov. 8. Hours are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Admission is free.
