The Muscatine History and Industry Center collects, preserves, and interprets materials that illustrate how local industry and its innovations of the past and present benefit the Muscatine area.

We will practice and promote professional standards in collecting, preserving, researching, interpreting, and sharing objects and information.

We will collaborate with local corporations, cultural organizations, downtown businesses, educators, researchers, and all other stakeholders.

We will promote life-long learning and provide an environment that encourages the sharing of personal stories.

We will use sound financial planning to ensure long-term sustainability.

We will contribute to the economic vitality of downtown by attracting out-of-town visitors and educating those visitors about other local attractions and businesses.

We will efficiently manage resources including staff, volunteers, funds, and physical assets.
