New exhibits at Crossroads Museum

Hello everyone! We are excited to announce the unveiling of three new exhibits at the Oyen Crossroads Museum! The first, our “Laundry Day” exhibit, is a look at the evolution and variety of the past century’s washing machines, tubs, and washboards. From the simple bath and plunger to the electrical washing machine, there is a diverse array of artifacts that will catch your eye, such as a two-in-one washing machine and butter churn!

The second is our typewriter exhibit, which showcases the many different models produced and used throughout the community. We are privileged to include Rose Jardine’s very own typewriter, allowing us to share her story and contributions to the town and area that have had such a longstanding, positive impact on its many residents.

Lastly, our third new exhibit is called “Phones Throughout the Ages,” which has on display how phones have evolved over time. We are still looking to expand this particular exhibit so if you have any old phones that you would like to see preserved please feel free to donate!
