There is more to Iowa than you think. Our museums tell the stories of the people, places, ideas, inventions, and traditions that have shaped this state. They help us understand where we came from sometimes see our own communities a little differently. Visit participating museums throughout Iowa during the summer tour. Stop at one museum or make a road trip out of it. Explore local history, art, science, agriculture, culture, transportation, industry, and all the wonderfully unexpected things Iowa museums have to offer.
