At the Museum of World Treasures, our mission is to provide a gateway to the past which educates, entertains, and inspires lifelong learning.
Here at the Museum we offer engaging and interactive exhibits, school trips and tours, volunteer opportunities and educational programming. Teachers have been very impressed with our customized tours and educational field trips, and one teacher from USD 266 went as far as to say, "In short, the tour was fantastic and the hospitality and helpfulness of the staff was spectacular."
So, why is all this in Kansas?
Dr. Jon and Lorna Kardatzke |
Dr. Jon is a retired physician who specialized in family practice medicine for 35 years. Through the years, the Kardatzkes have extensively traveled around the globe visiting a vast number of historical sites. These experiences enhanced their desire to continue adding to their collection which Dr. Jon began when he was sixteen years old.
Both Jon and Lorna are dedicated to education for students of all ages, and this interest motivates them to share their priceless collection with people from all around the world who visit the Museum.
Frankly, without the loving care and attention the Kardatzkes have provided through the years, the Museum of World Treasures would not exist. For this we are eternally grateful and give thanks for their kindness, diligence and vision.
