“Many of our ticketed annual events sell out each year, and other popular events like our concert series have been well attended for over 30 years,” said Nelson. “With all of that continued support, we are always trying to invite more people to be involved.” The Old Courthouse Museum wrapped up its Winter Concert Series and is looking forward to the Summer Concert Series Fridays at noon. People can also attend regular speakers with programming in the courtroom who are either authors or historians that cover a wide range of popular topics. Summer camps are available in the summer as well, including Pioneer Day Camp , Victorian Girl Day Camp , and Tea Time Mini Camp . Nelson says the building itself not only tells the story of history, but so much more from all of the memories made by visitors with school field trips, weddings, and visits with family and friends. “The building has been one of the biggest landmarks in the city for 137 years,” said Nelson. “Buildings and attractions come and go, but this place has been around for a long time and continues to tell the story of the area.” FOR MORE INFORMATION, VISIT SIOUXLANDMUSEUMS.COM+
