Sturgis Museum reopens

The Sturgis Historical Museum At The Depot has re-opened.

The recent opening marks the first time the museum has kept regular hours since the conclusion of the 2019 season. In 2020, the pandemic limited community access.

Featured attractions created for 2020 remain on display because so few people had the chance to experience them last year, said Jenifer Blouin Policelli, director.

Displays include an expanded Civil War exhibit; women’s rights; and Johnston Skate-O-Rama/Blue Plaza Skating Rink.

Meanwhile, organizers are working on an exhibit of Sturgis Drive-In, according to Blouin Policelli. Residents are invited to look at history and leave behind some of their own memories.

Sturgis Historical Museum hours are 10 to 4 Thursdays and Fridays, and 10 to 2 Saturdays.
