Families are invited to enjoy a new, temporary exhibit entitled 'Looking Back - What's Ahead?: once-useful items now obsolete' Visitors will see a curious collection of everyday objects from the 1800s that, in their day, made life easier for their owners.

Take the challenge to guess what the objects were used for and to speculate about what modern day objects have taken their place. This 'family-friendly' exhibit runs through October 25 and is available for viewing Thursdays, Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays from 1 to 4pm.

Cost
Admission is just $5. (Or, the exhibit may be seen as part of the mansion tour for no additional charge.)

Directions
