Come by the Museum and check these out! They will be delivered tomorrow! We have a limited number of these and they are $5.00.

Update: The first round of these has been delivered to the museum. Second round is in the works due to your interest. Thanks for supporting the museum and me!

It has been my privilege to create these two sided keychains in collaboration with Angela Jones for the Wayne County Museum. I didn’t make much profit on these but I didn’t intend to. I wanted to support the museum, it is a great resource in our community and displays some items from my husband’s family. YOU CANNOT GET THESE FROM ME! You can only get them at the museum. I don’t know what they cost. Give us a couple of days for me to deliver them and go buy one. Take a good look around while you are there.

A few pictures from Fort Harrod.

Enjoyed the day at Fort Harrod. My cousin was in the battle and I'll add pictures later. Here's the video though.

🎉 BIG NEWS! 🎉

The Wayne County Historical Museum has been recognized as a Best of Kentucky Regional Winner!

For a small-town museum, this is an incredible honor. Being recognized among museums from across the Commonwealth is a testament to the support of our community, volunteers, members, donors, and visitors.

Every artifact preserved, every story shared, every child who visits, and every person who walks through our doors helps make this museum what it is.

This recognition belongs to all of you. Thank you for believing in the importance of preserving our local history and helping us tell the story of Wayne County and Monticello.

We may be a small museum, but we are proving that big things can happen when a community comes together to celebrate and preserve its heritage.

Thank you, Wayne County/Monticello for helping make this achievement possible. We are honored to represent our community and look forward to continuing our mission of preserving the past for future generations.

We enjoyed giving these ladies from a local homemakers club a tour! Come back anytime!
