The Museum Team
At the Becker County Museum, our team is a passionate group of individuals who think outside the box in order to bring history, culture, and education to life for our community. As a small nonprofit, each of us goes beyond our official job titles, wearing many hats to ensure that every exhibit, event, and interaction reflects our collective dedication to the museum’s mission.
