The Missouri State Museum is currently participating in a Public Dimension
Assessment through the American Association of Museums to help the museum
understand its role in the community. Your participation will help staff
assess the museum's strengths and weaknesses and assist them in planning for
the future. This will be a facilitated dialogue, and your input will be
incorporated into the assessment. If you cannot attend any of the meetings,
you can e-mail your ideas to
 dsp.state.museum@dnr.mo.gov.

The Missouri State Museum staff provides tours and programs to thousands of
visitors to the Capitol each year. They also manage the museum galleries
that are on the first floor of the Capitol and the extensive artifact
collection of the museum. These community dialogues are part of an ongoing
effort by the Department of Natural Resources to ensure the public has input
on services provided in state parks and historic sites.
