PERMANENT EXHIBITS  ON DISPLAY

The Case Research Lab Museum

A permanent display at the site, the building where Theodore Case developed the first successful sound-on-film technology now houses an exhibit telling the full story of how "talkies" were invented in our own backyard.

A Child's World: Visitors will experience a view of childhood stretching from colonial times to the present, exploring ideas of education, family, and child labor. Included in this exhibit are samplers made by young girls, toys and games as well as items such as indenture papers which illustrate the less pleasant side of the 19th century. Also included is the newly restored painting of the Seymour Boys as well as some Museum's newest acquisitions.

Both Sides of the Wall: Auburn & Its Prison

This recent exhibit tracing the nearly 200-year history of Cayuga County's number one employer, the Auburn State Correctional Facility, has now returned to the museum as a permanent display.
