LEARN ABOUT OUR JOURNEY TO 2022!
The Journey to 2022 is a fundraising goal to improve accessibility and the visitor experience at The Journey Museum and Learning Center. Our goal is to raise $150,000 by Dec. 21, 2021 to be applied to 2022 educational efforts.
Why the year 2022? This is a significant year for a few reasons. In 2022, The Journey Museum and Learning Center will be 25 years old. Adding to that, it will be 50 years since the Rapid City Flood of 1972.
This campaign serves to not only remember an important period in local history but to improve how we can share that history for generations to come.
You can help by donating to The Journey Museum and Learning Center. Call 605-394-6923 to learn more.
