KAUFFMAN MUSEUM’S MISSION
The mission of Kauffman Museum is to foster learning experiences rich in artifacts that promote aesthetic appreciation of, critical thinking about and reflection on the people and the natural environment of the central prairies, with emphasis on the story of the Mennonites.

This mission is achieved by:
providing permanent and special exhibitions that interpret human and natural history
collecting artifacts from and stories about Mennonite people to illuminate universal themes of beliefs, identity, adaptation and change
organizing educational programs for children, college students, adults and intergenerational audiences
sharing museum resources with other communities through professional consultations, research, publication, and traveling exhibitions.
