The Unspun Tale: Sheep in South Dakota
South Dakota is fifth in the nation for sheep production. It plays a vital role in South Dakota鈥檚 agricultural economy, but is often overlooked. The Unspun Tale: Sheep in South Dakota exhibit explored South Dakota sheep production, past and present. It was on display from April 2016 to Oct. 1, 2017. The museum staff gathered oral histories, family photographs and artifacts from all corners of South Dakota to enrich the exhibit鈥檚 interpretation. There are hands-on activities for all ages to try to enrich the visitor鈥檚 experience.
"The Unspun Tale: Sheep in South Dakota" is made possible by generous donations provided by the South Dakota Sheep Growers Association, Clarkson Family Foundation, The Shepherd鈥檚 Gift: GM1 for HD, Brookings Fiberworks Guild and other private donors.
