Boone County Library

Ready to see the world in a whole new light? This spring break, the Shiloh Museum is hitting the road and bringing the magic of 19th-century science to the Boone County Library! What’s the buzz? We’re diving into the history of the Camera Obscura (the "dark room"). Long before smartphones and digital filters, people used simple boxes and a tiny pinhole to "capture" the world. We’ll explore how these early gadgets paved the way for the cameras we use today. The Best Part: You won’t just learn about history, you’ll build it! Every participant will create their own DIY Pinhole Camera to take home and start capturing their own Ozark adventures.
