Museums throughout Marysville and Marshall County will offer special activities in addition to free admission to celebrate the opening of the season.

The annual museum day is Saturday, April 2, 2022.

The weekend marks the point in the schedule where the Koester House Museum is open for the season and when the Pony Express Barn & Museum alters its schedule from being open weekends only to seven days per week.

Those two museums will join the Marshall County Historic Courthouse and the Historic Union Pacific Depot as well as others in the county in offering activities that day.

The Pony Express Barn & Museum is sponsoring the free showing of a silent movie, The Pony Express (1925), at Astro 3 theater at 1:30 p.m.

More details and information about the day’s events will be made available soon.
