Shoal Creek Living History Museum
Located in Hodge Park - Kansas City, MO
Operated by Shoal Creek Association
Salutations,
On behalf of the entire Shoal Creek Association Board, we express your deepest appreciation to all of our visitors, volunteers, re-enactors, sponsors, friends, vendors, and city employees that made 2017 a great success. Board members are all volunteers and the gratitude that we receive from you reminds us at every event and meeting why we love Shoal Creek and continue to offer our programs.
We have already begun planning for 2018 which shall include our Kids Safe Jamboree, 1st Saturdays (May-September), Harvest Festival, Wilderness Run, and A Visit from St. Nicholas. In addition, we are planning some further events which will be featured on our website and Facebook page as details are completed . . . we hope you will visit both sites over the coming months to read about these events.
We offer all our events and programs “To Honor and Teach Missouri’s Past.” If you are interested in volunteering, reenacting, sponsoring one of our events, or adopting one of the buildings, please contact us.
We wish each of you and your family a blessed and safe holiday season and happy new year.
Nestled quietly on 80 acres out of the 1,000 acres that makes up Hodge Park.
The museum has twenty-one structures with seventeen authentic 19th century buildings dating from 1807-1885. Our historic log cabins and homes were relocated from surrounding counties to create a village setting.
The grounds are open daily, dawn until dusk, and free of charge unless during a special event for admission or donation. The buildings are open during special events. Enjoy self guided tours by using our Walking Tour Guide Brochure which has building details and dates. Brochures are located at the front entrance information box, kiosk and the mercantile front porch. Picnic under the large shade trees or venture out on the walking trails throughout Hodge Park. Catch a glimpse of the bison and visit the chickens (Spring, Summer, and Fall months only) in the coop behind the Stollings House.
Visit during our special events! The buildings are open and re-enactors bring the village to life with skits, skirmishes, and demonstrations. Proceeds from these events go to the museum to provide educational programs, building restoration, museum operations, and grounds beautification.
