Our museum also houses a collection of paintings and other artwork by Chuck Bonner as featured on the art page and scenic photography by Barbara Shelton. We are located between the towns of Oakley and Scott City, Kansas on US 83 overlooking the Smoky Hill valley and the Badlands of Kansas region. Since our inception, we have hosted numerous visitors from fascinating backgrounds, including many states and foreign countries. Our visitors interests vary widely; they include the local Monument Rocks formation, Kansas fossils, and the various fossils and minerals for sale in the gallery. Some visitors just stop by out of curiosity about the building s history or the buffalo herd. Keystone was a church from 1917 to 1953, but had been abandoned until we bought it.
