Clayton County Museum Crawl Continues in June

The Clayton County Museum Crawl continues this weekend.

It’s the first year for the event, which gives visitors a fun chance to explore the museums across Clayton County.

There are more than a dozen museums in Clayton County, including:

• Edgewood Museum
• Wilder Museum in Strawberry Point
• Elkader Depot Museum
• Rural Heritage Museum in Elkader
• Earth Moving Legacy Center in Elkader
• Motor Mill Historic Site in rural Elkader
• Volga Library
• Garnavillo Historical Society
• Froelich Tractor Museum
• Monona Historical Museum
• Marquette Depot Museum
• McGregor Historical Museum
• Lockmaster’s House Heritage Museum in Guttenberg

Clayton County Tourism Team member Brandi Crozier says just show up at one of the museums to begin the crawl.

And if you’re looking for a way to beat the heat this weekend, this is one way to do it. Most of the museums are air-conditioned – and staffed with friendly faces who can’t wait to share the fascinating stories preserved inside their walls. 

The museum crawl runs Saturdays and Sundays throughout June from 10 am to 3 pm all across Clayton County.
