This isn’t just an exhibit, it is an experience for all of your senses! Come to look, touch, listen, and see why this is such an important piece of history. You can listen to immersive oral story recordings, watch a captivating projector display showing the massive water wheel in motion, and learn the inspiring stories of the women who worked hard at the mill. Plus, you can touch raw wool to feel the textures of early textile production and see authentic, historic tools from the Sebastopol area. An interactive outing for everyone to discover our community’s shared heritage!
