Exhibits at the Rockford Area Historical Society and the Ames-Florida-Stork House address a variety of diverse and interesting ideas.  Using mainly the organization's vast collection of late 19th and early 20th century artifacts, our exhibits provide a compelling and in-depth look at how people lived between 1860 and 1985.  Ranging from topics specific to the Ames, Florida or Stork families and the founding and development of Rockford to broader themes involving culture, customs and livelihood, our exhibits play a central role in telling Rockford's unique story.

Coming soon! RAHS is taking the "hidden collection" out of hiding to celebrate our 25th Anniversary! Experience a newly designed tour and room displays that will highlight special letters, sheet music, diaries, books, family photographs, and other paper objects. You've seen the family artifacts... now come hear their words!

Items held in the archived collection include Clinton Stork's diaries (above) and over 2,000 books (right). In addition to the new displays, you can also experience life during the World War I era by subscribing to our weekly newsletter. Simply send an email to us to begin experiencing first-hand the daily routine of the Stork family.
