Program areas at Grand Encampment Museum
The Grand Encampment Museum has been tasked with the preservation and interpretation of history for Wyoming's upper north platte valley. In addition to preserving thousands of histroical treasures the Museum provides free access to the public to view historical artifacts and to a large library of historical books, magazines, newspapers and photos to conduct research.
The Museum received a grant from the Wyoming cultural trust fund to produce an orientation film for the Museum to display to visitors and to use in advertising campaigns. The video clip will be approximately 7 minutes long and will be played on a loop to visitors in the doc culleton building. This film will give a brief history of the Museum and the surrounding areas. The project was completed early 2022 and was available to visitors.
The Museum provides historical education programs to youth who come to the Museum as part of a school field trip or part of a summer camp. Youth are engaged in historical activities and are exposed to historical music, artifacts and lore.
