50 years of honoring local history February 23 2021
The Bowman Museum collection has been compiled during the past half a century thanks to a generous community
When taking a look back at the 50 years since the A.R. Bowman Museum got its beginnings, it is obvious that not only did a lot take place, but a great and generous community made it all possible. One of the most recent hires at the museum put it very eloquently. Our collection system is really important because it helps us to keep track of when objects have been donated, and also who donated them and why they matter to Crook County. They aren t just nameless objects that we have, but they have a history, and they have an importance, indicated Sadee Moss, who serves as collections assistant.
