Our show is part of the Museum’s annual 19th century style Agricultural Society Fair during the Fall Festival. We have the privilege of competing and enjoying our hobby while providing the public a window into our fancy. There is so much to see and do on the Museum grounds; exhibitors, family and friends will have plenty of entertainment to pass the day.
