We're proud to feature two changing exhibits each year. The first featured exhibit is on display March through June, followed by the second feature displayed July through October. During the months of November and December the home is decorated for the season. Christmas trees, lights and other holiday items are displayed. January and February the museum is closed for restoration.

The parlor was our latest restoration project. Six layers of wallpaper were removed and the parlor has a new look. Currently featured at the museum are a number of old cameras from our collection, a display showcasing the 100th year anniversary of the court house and several signature quilts. Signature quilts were made as a way to raise funds for organizations and churches. We have the 1939 guilt, featuring names from the Maplewood Christian Church, one from Belleville residences in the 1930s, the Coatesville Bingo Club 1949-50, The Homermakes County Quilt Guild of 2989 and The Golden Manor Health Quilt dated May 1985. Also hanging is the Hendricks County Heritage Quilt which was created in 1976 for the county's bicentennial, sponsored by the Cultural Arts Committee. Sixty-nine groups are represented within this peace.
