Program Services

DescriptionGrantsExpenses
The Wilton Archives, a complementary organization to the Wilton Candy Kitchen, continues to preserve, promote, and curate materials related to the rich history of Wilton and Muscatine County. Through its exhibits and collections, the Archives engages with more than 3,500 visitors annually, sharing local stories, artifacts, and heritage with guests from near and far. Activities in 2024 included hosting approximately 725 Wilton Elementary and Junior High students for an end-of-year educational visit. During this annual event, students toured the Candy Kitchen, its museum, and the archival collections to learn about Wilton's history and the importance of preservation. These educational visits foster a strong connection between students and their community's heritage. The Archives also produced the Historic Wilton Calendar, a tradition since 2018. The calendar showcases photographs, stories, and materials drawn directly from the Wilton Archives' collections, serving both as an educational publication and a fundraising effort. Sales of the 2024 calendar continued through the early part of the year, and in November 2024, work was completed on the 2025 edition, followed by the launch of its sales campaign. Proceeds from calendar sales help fund ongoing preservation projects and community outreach. The Candy Kitchen also maintains a small heritage center located in the rear of the building, offering visitors an opportunity to explore Wilton's past. The Archives further oversees the main archival collections housed in the historic Star Drug Building and the annex museum displays located in the Bacon Building. Monies raised through these programs support ongoing preservation expenses and contribute toward the future Wilton Heritage Center, a planned museum and archives complex to be built just north of the Candy Kitchen.$0$462
