During the Cobblestone festival held in Falls City, NE on August 26th, 2017, the Humane Society of Richardson County created a "Falter Float". The group mimicked the January 8, 1955 Saturday Evening Post cover known as "Kittens in the Basement".

We thought it was a PUUURRRR-fect tribute to John!

The Stone Street Arts held their annual Fall Art Walk for Falls City High School and Falls City Sacred Heart High School Art Departments on Thursday, September 21st from 5:00-7:00 PM.

All donations from the event were given to the high school art departments.

Visitors were able to tour the three downtown galleries, view student art works from both high schools, and enjoy refreshments and wonderful shopping along Stone Street.

The event was sponsored by Christina's Art Gallery, Stalder Gallery and the Falter Museum.

The museum was honored to host the Chamber BASH on October 5th. Local leaders of Falls City came together at the John Philip Falter Museum to discuss ideas to help move the community forward!
