    "body": "<div class=\"mw-parser-output\">\n <p>\n  Created in July 1968, this local museum has grown from a small town site with a focus on the process of homesteading in the region of Powell, Wyoming, to a sprawling complex that covers such topics as the Shoshone Reclamation Project for irrigation to regional icons like Roy Barnes, Earl Durand, and Boxcar Murphy. Since 1972, the main museum has been housed in a log building built by the American Legion in 1933 that has been used as a banquet hall, roller rink, and German POW camp. Beyond the main building is the Bever Homestead, an original 1911 homestead house, a farm implement museum, and several large vehicles. In the midst of the more than 50 years of homesteading history depicted by the museum, Japanese Americans occupied part of the local land at the Heart Mountain detention center. As a result, the Homesteader Museum has a permanent exhibit that presents artifacts and photographs from this period in local history. Visitors to the museum can check out a GPS-based walking tour of historic Powell and the museum regularly hosts rotating art and special interest exhibits, book signings, and receptions.\n </p>\n <div id=\"authorByline\">\n  <b>\n   Authored by\n   <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"/Abbie_Salyers_Grubb/\" title=\"Abbie Salyers Grubb\">\n    Abbie Salyers Grubb\n   </a>\n  </b>\n </div>\n <div id=\"citationAuthor\" style=\"display:none;\">\n  Grubb, Abbie\n </div>\n <div id=\"RelatedArticlesDisplay\">\n  <div class=\"section\" id=\"Related_Articles\">\n   <h2>\n    <span class=\"mw-headline\" id=\"Related_Articles\">\n     Related Articles\n    </span>\n   </h2>\n   <div class=\"section_content\">\n    <p class=\"mw-empty-elt\">\n    </p>\n    <div id=\"RelatedArticlesSectionDisplay\">\n     <div class=\"section\" id=\"\">\n      <h3>\n       <span class=\"mw-headline\" id=\"\">\n       </span>\n      </h3>\n      <div class=\"section_content\">\n       <p class=\"mw-empty-elt\">\n       </p>\n       <ul>\n        <li>\n         <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"/Museum_exhibitions_on_incarceration/\" title=\"Museum exhibitions on incarceration\">\n          Museum exhibitions on incarceration\n         </a>\n        </li>\n       </ul>\n      </div>\n     </div>\n    </div>\n   </div>\n  </div>\n </div>\n <div class=\"section\" id=\"For_More_Information\">\n  <h2>\n   <span class=\"mw-headline\" id=\"For_More_Information\">\n    For More Information\n   </span>\n  </h2>\n  <div class=\"section_content\">\n   <p>\n    [The Homesteader Museum Website.\n    <a class=\"external free offsite\" href=\"http://homesteadermuseum.com/\" rel=\"nofollow\">\n     http://homesteadermuseum.com/\n    </a>\n    ]\n   </p>\n   <!-- \nNewPP limit report\nCached time: 20240418160714\nCache expiry: 86400\nDynamic content: false\nComplications: []\nCPU time usage: 0.006 seconds\nReal time usage: 0.009 seconds\nPreprocessor visited node count: 54/1000000\nPost‐expand include size: 1254/2097152 bytes\nTemplate argument size: 58/2097152 bytes\nHighest expansion depth: 6/40\nExpensive parser function count: 0/100\nUnstrip recursion depth: 0/20\nUnstrip post‐expand size: 0/5000000 bytes\nExtLoops count: 0\n-->\n   <!--\nTransclusion expansion time report (%,ms,calls,template)\n100.00%    5.762      1 -total\n 49.06%    2.827      1 Template:RelatedArticles\n 25.65%    1.478      1 Template:Published\n 24.17%    1.393      1 Template:RelatedArticlesSection\n 23.79%    1.371      1 Template:AuthorByline\n-->\n   <!-- Saved in parser cache with key encycmw:pcache:idhash:3128-0!canonical and timestamp 20240418160714 and revision id 36140\n -->\n  </div>\n </div>\n</div>\n<div class=\"toplink\">\n <a href=\"#top\">\n  <i class=\"icon-chevron-up\">\n  </i>\n  Top\n </a>\n</div>",
