Love this place..
A wonderful, beautiful place to visit. So worth the price of admission.
Very neat to visit the Big Shoal Cemetary which used to be the only one in the area and the Atkins Johnson Farm. It is free and the special exhibit right now at the museum is parlor games. They have board games and stuff u can play from the 1800's and early 1900's. Very fun. Proof you can see with your own eyes too that 3-D came much earlier than recently. Very neat.
Children's Garden Day was a blast and the interactive parlor games was a huge hit with my 4 yr old.
Great display of historical architecture. Enjoyed the readers theater and encampment. It inspired my teenage cousin. Great to see the next generation get excited about history. Limited wheelchair access. If you can handle a couple of steps then you should be able to see it all. Be sure to look at the map for directions around the road construction.
The Big Shoal Heritage Area is home to Gladstone Missouri's first historic preservation project. The Atkins-Johnson Farm and Museum and the Big Shoal Cemetery are both located on the east side of Gladstone.
