TELL OUR STORY
We represent the communities of Mahnomen, Waubun, Bejou, Beaulieu and Naytahwaush. We have regular newsletters and regular monthly meetings. The BC Ness History Museum is open three afternoons a week during summer. It is located at 106 N Main Street in Mahnomen. We welcome school groups by appointment.
Check our CALENDAR & BLOG page for info on our latest exhibits and changes for this year. We have an extensive collection of the Mahnomen Pioneer newspaper on microfilm and are working toward digitizing other documents as funding allows. We actively look for grants and donations for operating funds and to make improvements in our exhibits.
