Now on display at the Knight Museum & Sandhills Center is a comprehensive new exhibit exploring one of the most influential ranching operations in Nebraska.
Featuring 26 interpretive panels, visitors can journey through the history of the Spade Ranch, the people who built it, and the realities of daily life on the ranch. Historic photographs, maps, stories, and research bring this remarkable chapter of Nebraska history to life.
To complement the exhibit, Steve Cleveland will join us next week for a special presentation, discussion, and question-and-answer session. Whether you have family ties to the Spade, an interest in ranching history, or simply enjoy learning about the Sandhills, this is a program you won’t want to miss.
Come explore the legacy of the Spade Ranch and experience the stories that helped shape western Nebraska.
