Merly payne

small but mighty. I was expecting more artifacts , but I thought the interactive elements were very well done, and I came out with a new list of authors to add to my reading list.

Excellent museum for anyone who loves American lit! $12 admission was totally worth it! Kind of small, but you’ll be able to fully enjoy each exhibit !

Joel&Megan Hilgendorf

Small, price higher then I’d prefer, but great interactive elements and middle/high school students would learn so much. MPlease give teachers a larger discount .

Becca Allen

Small but well-thought-out, full of fun interactivity. Bring a notebook because you’re going to want to take notes on the authors and books you learn about!

Christopher Brooks

This museum is fantastic! While it's only a single floor, my dad and I were there for hours. Definitely check out this place!
