The featured permanent exhibit is a 4000 square foot exhibit, "A Rural Way of Life", which opened in October 2009. The Museum received the Governor's Exemplary Community Achievement Award in 2010 for the exhibit. This exhibit tells the story of Andrew County's citizens from its incorporation in 1841 to 2001. The unique exhibit uses artifacts, illustrations, photos, video, and audio to tell the story of how change has occurred over time in this county. Not unlike many rural counties in this country, the exhibit tells stories unique to Andrew County while showing trends that would be common in many other counties.

The Museum is housed in a modern building donated by native son Harry Duncan for the specific purpose of being the county's museum home. The admission price is quite reasonable and the quality of the exhibit is something one does not normally find in county history museums.

The museum also has a fine genealogy department for researching local family history and a gift shop featuring items of general historic interest as well as some seasonal items.
