This was a great museum! It was very well organized with excellent displays. The staff was very helpful and friendly. This is a must see museum to better understand the Sandhills from prehistoric time through the 1950’s.

Replica of Stonehenge that is created from old automobiles. Pit Stop Gift Shop is open during the summer, merchandise available in town at the Knight Museum in the winter.

Carhenge is in the middle of a big field so you cannot miss it! They have added some other car art along the path here. I like the benches made from a truck tail gate! There is one car art called the autograph car that you can sign (names only it says, so it does not become trashy) so take your pen or marker with you. Fun stop and great photo opp along a long flat drive in Nebraska. It's free, too! Donations are accepted in a container where you enter.

Reviewed By sweetwtr - Alliance, United States
Lovely place to sit quietly and pass the evening just watching the newly renovated light display and listen to the soothing sound of rushing water. Day or night this is a great place to just enjoy. It is also right next to the parks and the Sallows military museum and across the street is the Knight Museum. The military museum also houses a conservatory with a wide range of native and not so native plants and flowers. Many benches and picnic tables to be able to hold family reunions or just picnics with friends or family. The shelter house across the street is also available to rent for parties or gatherings of any kind.

Annually, Carnegie is an organization that is working to help its community understand the transformative and fluid nature of art. To understand that art has the power to increase quality of life, community, economic growth and build lasting connections. We do this through hosting 19 rotating exhibits a year that are free and open to the public. The upper gallery showcases professionally exhibiting artists, travelling and group shows. The studio gallery hosts youth, student, collegiate, and semi-professional artists. Carnegie offers exhibit tours, artist receptions, and fine arts field trips. Sharing our passion for the arts spreads beyond the gallery walls and into our arts education program and outreach. We host over a hundred combined classes, workshops, and art camps annually. These classes are held at the art center and out in the community. We want art to be accessible to EVERYONE, so if you can’t come to us, we will come to you.
