Now Showing!

"Aloha! Greetings from the Islands" exhibits Hawaiian and other South Pacific island items from the museum's collection not previously on display.  A few items are on loan from Battle Creek residents for the duration of the exhibition only.  The exhibition features an octopus lure, examples of Tapa and Kapa cloth, a variety of garments associated with the Hula, lava tools, geological specimens, wooden vessels, and much more.  Over 50 items will be on display in addition to numerous photographs from the museum's archives, some of which were taken by the museum’s first director, Edward Brigham, Sr.
