The museum is an integral part of the community that welcomes<br>more than 20,000 guests annually to learn about our history while also connecting with the<br>community.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOur team is proud of the work we are doing toward preservation, education, and innovation<br>in the way we present history. Gifts to the museum during this time of year are crucial to<br>support operations and allow us to continue to offer vital programming.\u201d shares Teresa Galley,<br>executive director of the museum.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Board Chair, Rachel Castle explains, \u201cTying the mascots, Theodore, Daphne, Dr. Brush, and<br>Beau, into the campaign let us share more about the unique ways the museum connects our<br>exhibits and programming with families and especially children to spark curiosity,<br>imagination, and a passion for lifelong learning.\u201d<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meet the Team of Mascots at the Museum:<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Theodore, the Museum\u2019s original black bear mascot is the first friendly face visitors see at the<br>entrance. Strong, welcoming, and always ready for a hug or a photo, he has been part of the<br>Museum\u2019s story from the beginning. While black bears no longer roam Wabash County,<br>Theodore reminds us of the region\u2019s wild past and the welcoming spirit that defines our<br>community. He is connected to The Den by Beacon, the Museum\u2019s active learning and play<br>space.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Graceful and gentle, Daphne, a white-tailed deer, makes her home in The Meadow by Bowen<br>Health, the Museum\u2019s sensory-friendly space. She encourages guests of all ages to pause,<br>explore, and connect with Wabash County\u2019s history at their own pace, making learning a calm<br>and imaginative experience.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Inventive and clever, Dr. Brush, the fox, resides in the Museum\u2019s STEM-focused space. Always<br>curious, he inspires young scientists and innovators to explore and experiment. He encourages<br>hands-on creativity while making science and discovery fun. Dr. Brush brings the story of<br>Wabash\u2019s innovative and entrepreneurial past to life.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The newest member of the team, Beau, the beaver, represents the species that have lived in<br>Wabash County for centuries. With his spirit of adventure and love of the county\u2019s waterways,<br>Beau is a true superhero who uses his iron teeth and water-wicking fur to celebrate the<br>natural resources of northern Indiana. He is part of the Forest to Field exhibit, where he<br>encourages children to explore, learn, and appreciate the natural world.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Watch for the mascots this November and December as they act as the spokes people for the<br>museum and the amazing work they do to preserve and present history in Northern Indiana.<br>You can support the continued work of the museum with a gift this Giving Tuesday by visit<br>www.wabashmuseum.org\/donate<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Wabash County Museum is located at 36 E Market Street in downtown Wabash.
