Our South Dakota: Big Land / Big Ideas / Big Heart

The exhibit examines the physical and mental landscapes of South Dakota, past and present. Explore the physical realities of our state and how these realities shape our attitudes and the communities we form. And, have a great time doing it! Come and measure yourself against a full-size replica of Washington’s nose from Mount Rushmore, see how many South Dakotas fit across the entire U.S., try your hand at typing on a manual typewriter.

Opening will be from 1:00-4:30 p.m. and refreshments will be served. Come and experience Our South Dakota!
