New Happenings Each Month

The Stearns History Museum is not only filled with exhibits to explore, we also host multiple events and programs throughout the year. From large-scale research conferences and our Living History World War II Reenactment weekend, to small-scale writing groups and fun activities just for kids.

Check the events calendar below for upcoming events. 

Stearns History Museum and Rethos: A Programming Partnership

 Our next Rethos event is Plumbing with Jake - Fall Date TBD. Stay tuned!

Rethos is a preservation organization based in St. Paul and Stearns History Museum is proud to partner with them. As host of the Central Minnesota Education Coordinator for Rethos, the museum is excited to be part of an organization that supports the continued use of existing sites, structures, and spaces.
