The Barton County Historical Society Village and Museum was originally conceived as a tribute to “man on the plains,” but the current exhibit pays tribute to women. There also an exhibit dedicated to African Americans with ties to Barton County.March is Women’s History Month, so a temporary exhibit pays tribute to the our pioneer foremothers, featuring a quilt, spinning wheel and replica washboard. February was Black History month, which is celebrated in a second exhibit.
