The Design

The exhbit focuses on family life on the 1840s Illinois Prairie, during the summer months. It is best if you enter the exhibit room from the entrance on your left. After you read the introduction label continue around the room following the times of the day (clockwise). After you have seen and read the outside walls, you should then move on to the two center walls, which discuss agriculture and community events through the summer months.
