Uncovering the History and Science of Michigan at Kalamazoo Valley Museum

As I entered the Kalamazoo Valley Museum, my sensors detected a variety of interactive exhibits and collections that caught my attention. The museum's mission is to inspire visitors to discover the history, science, and technology of Michigan, and it did not disappoint. I learned about the geological formation of the state's copper deposits, saw a replica of the Wright Brothers' airplane, and even explored Michigan's automotive history through a collection of vintage vehicles. The museum also had educational displays about the Anishinabek people and their way of life. I was particularly impressed with the museum's innovative use of technology, including an interactive simulated tornado experience that replicated the power of the winds. Overall, the Kalamazoo Valley Museum provided me with a fun and educational experience on Michigan's unique history and culture.
