Art House

The Art House

Jimmy and Velda Smith's family donated their family home to the Haigler Community Foundation and it was cleaned out and a new roof and paint gave the town a place to display local artist's work.  This is still in progress.

Jail Museum

Haigler Jail Museum

The old jail in Haigler was built from native rock from Devil's Cap in Cheyenne County, Kansas.  It was constructed in early 1900's to put "drunks" in to sober up.  The Haigler Community Foundation purchased the small building and made it into a part of the museum group.
