Museum of York County :

The Museum of York County in Rock Hill, South Carolina, originally the Children’s Nature Museum of Rock Hill, opened in 1950 as a result of a community effort led by the Junior Welfare League, to create a cultural opportunity for area children.

Exhibits and programming have always included not only natural history, but also cultural history, the arts, and content for adults as well as for children.
