We are trying to raise 1.5 million for a building to house the “Faces of Little Big Horn collection by David Humphreys Miller This collection would stay in Van Wert and tell this historic Story. Both about the Artist, The battle and the natives. It’s right here in Van Wert for the Van Wert County Historical Society. Check us out @ 135 east main!

Maybe perspective regarding a collection that is for sale in Bozeman vs what we are trying to preserve here in Van Wert.

The collection is for sale for 4.5 million dollars.

If you want to donate please reach out to the Van Wert County Historical society

A very cool photograph!

As evening sets in this we hope you all had a fabulous day. We thought you may like to see the Sculpture in progress looks magnificent under the moon light too! From a distance, or from the air, the red flashing lights make it possible to locate the Mountain Carving and tower crane. The Mountain combined with the starry Black Hills sky on a clear night really is an awe-inspiring sight!

Perspective! Now maybe you can grasp the size of this project !

We thought this was such a breathtaking vantage point that we couldn't keep it from our friends! From here we can see exactly why the tower crane is such an asset with its far-reaching capabilities. Don't forget to take note of the other amazing, seemingly small equipment, the Carvers, and the progress!
