Fresh off a 16-month pit stop for the COVID-19 pandemic, the State Historical Society of Iowa’s mobile museum is getting back on the road with a brand-new exhibition. Housed in a custom-built Winnebago RV, “Iowa History 101: Iowa’s People & Places” is a 300-square-foot museum on wheels, packed with 56 artifacts and videos that explore 13,000 years of Iowa history, from its earliest residents to those who call it home today. The mobile museum will carry “Iowa’s People & Places” to all 99 Iowa counties beginning this month through 2023, similar to its first three-year tour but this time with a different exhibition. The first mobile museum exhibition made 175 stops across all 99 counties from 2017 through 2019 and attracted nearly 65,000 visitors, including 11,400 students. The traveling exhibition presenting sponsor is EMC Insurance Cos., with additional partnership support from Casey’s General Stores, Winnebago Industries, Iowa State University Extension and Outreach and Mike Wolfe.
