Preserving the history of the Owens Valley and the Eastern Sierra
	The Museum exhibits include a variety of historic buildings saved from destruction and preserved at this site.  Each building contains exhibits of artifacts and collections as briefly described below.  The Museum buildings have been set up to represent a village surrounding the railroad depot.  With the exception of the original depot and the agent's house, the original village of Laws was gone by 1959, the year before the railroad shut down.
