You are most welcome to wander the museum grounds, too. Relics from various mines which have been give to the Museum include the School house bell from Brown School and the white dome by the labyrinth, which is the Museum's observatory. (We occasionally have public star parties. If you'd like to schedule a group to visit the telescope on a special occasion contact us!) The Labyrinth is open at any time -come on over and stroll around and around and around it! Try it under a full moon.
