Water is the lifeblood of human civilization, shaping our history, economy, and environment. The Johnson County Museum's new exhibit - “Ripples” - explores how water has connected us all—past, present, and future. From ancient inland seas to today’s interconnected watersheds, humans have always relied on water for survival, trade, agriculture, recreation, and more. But as we face increasing challenges like historic droughts, floods, and pollution, our relationship with water has never been more complex.
The exhibit showcases the region’s history through interactive displays, artifacts, and stories that illustrate the ripples left by past decisions and the ones we continue to create today. We encourage you to check it out!
It is open Monday – Saturday, 9:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. thru January 10, 2026 and included with the museum admission. Learn more here: https://jcprd.com/2094/Ripples-Water-Community-and-You
