Interpretive ProgramsA self-guided tour will lead you through displays and exhibits of the era of the late 1830’s referencing life in the town of St. Joseph. Railroad moguls mixed with high society in this prosperous time. It was this affluence that brought the state’s first constitution convention to the town of St. Joseph in 1838. A replicated convention hall takes you into the debate of delegates Robert Raymond Reid, William P. Duvall, David Y. Levy and Thomas L Baltzell. These life-size, audio-animated mannequins bring a realistic touch to the pomp and circumstance of drafting a state constitution. |
