Events and Programs

​HAHA held an online auction fundraiser with the donated services of McPherson Auction.

February and March, 2022 -- HAHA members collected items for our upcoming fundraiser auction, sorted the items into lots, described, and photographed the items. What an enormous collection of treasures we have!
March 15, 2022 -- The Auction went live online and bidding began.

March 18, 2022 -- In-person Auction preview took place from 2 pm to 6 pm.
March 19, 2022 -- In-person Auction preview took place from 10 am to 4 pm.
March 19, 2022 -- The online bidding closed between 6-7:30 pm. A few bidding wars took place at the last minute, and a few people waited too long to raise their bids and lost out.
March 20, 2022 -- Auction items were paid for and picked up between 10 am and 2 pm.
Thanks to the generosity of community members who donated such wonderful items (art! Navajo rugs! clocks! antiques!) we raised over $8,000, which will help fund the Museum renovations that will begin this spring.

*** Upcoming Events ***
Spring and Summer, 2022 -- HAHA is replacing the temporary staircase with a wider one with a landing, closing off the old stairwell, installing heating and plumbing and electricity in the west half of the Museum, and paneling the walls to match the east half. We are looking forward to finally getting this work done, which has been on hold during the pandemic.
June 25, 2022 -- HAHA benefit rummage sale.​
August 11-14, 2022 -- Custer County Fair. HAHA will have a booth at the Fair with photos and displays about our local history. We'll also have a drawing for a book, so be sure to stop by and sign up.
October 31, 2022 -- Join us for Trick-or-Treat on the HAHA Museum porch. Come in costume for a candy treat-- all ages welcome. We'll take photos and post them on Facebook and the website, below. Bring your carved Jack-o-Lantern to display at the Museum that evening, whether you carve or paint or decorate a traditional pumpkin or some other squash.
