To experience Minnesota history in a multitude of ways including hands-on activities, music, authors, and interactive games; To learn about the many programs and resources offered by the Minnesota Historical Society.

The MHS used their own survey method and the surveys were sent back to them. Comments we received included: Steampunk program: I really liked it and thought the props and instructors were great; Fun but I dislike how the story evolved reincarnation; Etiquette program: I really enjoyed learning how different life used to be; Very informative of both mannerisms of today and of Victorian time period.
