County, to raise awareness for historic barn preservation. He then donated the paintings to the

The paintings are currently on display at the Amos Library in Sidney and will be
displayed during the Shelby County Fair July 20-26, 2025. The paintings will be located in the
Traveling Museum that will be parked next to the Community Foundation Hall.
Bidding for the paintings will be open on-line starting July 7th. Visit the website

will go up by $5. All proceeds benefit the Shelby County Historical Society.
The auction will end on Friday, July 25th at 6:30 p.m. We will be onsite at the traveling
museum at this time if you choose to have us place your bid. Feel free to stop by for us to assist
you with your bid. The winners of the bids are to pick up their paintings on Saturday, July 26th
