Hands of Time Gallery represents artists both nationally and internationally. We offer a truly unique gallery experience that is warm and inviting. The gallery interweaves a calming sensibility, with an eye towards the slightly whimsical and subtly surreal. Our walls are filled with stories to ponder and dreamscapes to get lost in.

This art gallery is full of eclectic art and seems to have something for everyone. The colorful, enchanted art style of Brandon Sherwood is a must-see, but there are also photographs, pillows, prints and more. Be sure to stop by the Hands of Time Gallery during your next visit to Lindsborg, Kansas.
4. Mcpherson County Old Mill Museum

The Old Mill is amazing enough, considering it actually runs to mill grain once a year (young children not admitted inside the mill for that, with the moving parts). See how the harvest-to-flour process worked. There is also a room with taxidermied representatives of area fauna and rock samples, with room to move around. The whole Swedish theme of Lindsborg is done with an emphasis on immigration, sample rooms of homes after they settled, and cute cut-outs to take pictures as immigrants of various ages. There is a computer with with genealogy info to look up, and songs. Then, in decent weather, there is an entire village main street across with old buildings filled with buggies and a school house, a train station, and a big Swedish pavilion that was originally built for the World's Fair in St. Louis. The whole place is heaven for active kids who soak up a lot of historical info while having room to run around and explore. The place is funky and fun, which is part of the charm. Downside would be steps most everywhere. A negligible admission charge, paid at the little gift shop. (There is a local swimming pool next door, but we've not yet combined that for a visit). Ideal for grade school children and up. There is a nice local park playground downtown for younger kids to run around and burn off energy.

The work of Lester Raymond is on display- prepare to be amazed at how talented and prolific he was. The museum docents do a great job of guiding you through the fascinating world of a local artist, whose work should be in the Smithsonian, still that good!
