Dacotah Prairie Museum
© 2000-05 Disclaimer
Dacotah Prairie Museum Foundation
The Dacotah Prairie Museum was established for public use for the purpose of preserving and showcasing the rich, colorful history of Brown County and its inhabitants. Although Brown County taxes provide the base for museum operations, this money is limited. To provide the exhibits and educational programs the public has come to expect, additional support is needed.

The Dacotah Prairie Museum Foundation was created in 1985 to solicit donations to supplement the financial needs of the Dacotah Prairie Museum. Through your generous annual contributions, you can show your support of our commitment to keep yesterday alive for tomorrow.

Your membership helps the museum collect and preserve its collection of artifacts, present special exhibitions and programs, and promote the museum to a wider audience. Annual memberships are renewable on membership anniversary date.
