Beautiful copy of a famous poem, written by a native Mishawakan!

We had a wonderful time at Mishawaka's Heritage Festival last weekend! Let's keep some momentum going - visit mishawakamuseum.com or facebook.com/mishawakamuseum for more information on how to help us grow.

We're very curious! 👀

We're back! Want a sneak peek at what's going on in our building? The artifact platforms have been constructed and painted. The floor is being installed. The large platform on wheels will hold Don Heirman's model train set, one of our signature features. We can't wait to open!

Happy Valentine's Day to all Mishawakans, near and far ♥️ We love you and we appreciate all your support over the last few years.

Discovered more 1930s WPA stonework along Willow Creek at Eberhart GC as part of routine ditch maintenance. Unearthed an island, fork of creek, stone bridge & cobble paths. One of a kind, historic treasures made by Mishawaka citizens. So cool! Thanks County Drainage for work.

The stonework is originally from Petro Park, which was absorbed by the golf course. Has anyone had a chance to see it?

Happy #PiDay! The warmer weather this week is making us hungry for strawberry pie - the way the ladies from the Ball-Band factory made it in 1949. Do you see any names you know? Image credit: Red Ball Magazine, 7/15/1949. SJCPL Michiana Memory

We're so excited to see what was going on in Mishawaka! What will you be looking for?

If you've driven by the museum in the past week, you may have noticed we changed our look. Last week, the old awning was removed by Custom Awning. The new awning will feature our name, logo, and colors (maroon & white). We will also soon have a new roof and a fresh coat of paint!

Are you on Instagram? We are! Follow us at instagram.com/mishawakamuseu… We'll have pictures, information, and updates - especially as we get closer to opening later this year!
