New Exhibit! Back Home In Indiana

Jimmy Stewart came home to Indiana for his 75th birthday and the folks he left behind welcomed him with open arms. Stewart was guest of honor at a star-spangled weekend that included a parade, a film festival, the unveiling of a bronze statue honoring him and a phone call from then President Ronald Reagan with a military flyover! Come visit us and learn more about Stewart’s last visit to his beloved hometown.

At the Holidays

At The Holidays the museum does it right! There is a special It’s A Wonderful Life exhibit with movie posters, photos, memorabilia and behind the scenes movie facts. We also feature life-size movie cutouts for photo ops, It’s A Wonderful Life village and a miniature Granville house from the movie. Interspersed throughout the museum is also a Festival of Trees. Over 10 Christmas trees are on display that are decorated based on Jimmy Stewart’s life and films. Be sure to visit The Shop Around the Corner gift shop that has unique holiday items that make for great gifts! And of course, we show the movie It’s A Wonderful Life in our theater every day at 1 pm throughout the holiday season!
