From the ridiculous (our infamous two-headed calf) to the sublime (our significant local cultural, art and history collections), this family-friendly museum celebrates regional Northern Kentucky. Hold a prehistoric mammoth fossil, take an imaginary ride through time with the restored 1892 “Kentucky” streetcar, watch a vintage drive-in movie from a 1959 Buick Electra convertible and activate the trains, lights and music of a miniature, mid-century community. Art lovers will appreciate works by such prominent regional artists as Mary Bruce Sharon, Wolfgang Ritschel, Harlan Hubbard and others. Music@BCM concerts rock the museum on Thursday nights during the summer, while the annual Holiday Toy Trains display is a child's delight in winter.
What a great morning to visit this hidden gem in Northern Kentucky. Something for all ages. The White Christmas display is absolutely stunning. The trains are interactive fun and the boat play area is well thought out and fun. Highly recommend!

Awesome museum with a multitude of exhibits and reasonable admission cost. Absolutely overjoyed to see the white Christmas costumes. Some cool architectural features going on inside. Great visit.
