Mission

The mission of the Wornall/Majors House Museums is to: preserve, protect, and maintain the John Wornall and Alexander Majors historic houses and their collections in an intentional, inclusive, and ethical way, and to preserve them so that future generations can have a tangible connection to nineteenth century Kansas City and beyond; and interpret and present the houses, the lives of all those who lived and labored in them, and the many important events and controversies of the Civil War era, in an honest, inclusive, and accurate way through public programming that engages and informs diverse audiences about our shared past and its legacies.
