The Barry County Museum was created to preserve our rich heritage for future generations. Since opening our doors in 2007, public interest and support has been even greater than we anticipated. Operating as a 501(c)(3) not for profit organization, we receive no financial support from local or federal government. If we are to continue to grow and protect our collections, we must rely on our patrons

and neighbors. We do so by asking that you volunteer your time, and support our operations financially through memorials, donations, and memberships.
