The Iowa Heartland History Connection is inviting the community to enjoy one last celebration of its popular M*A*S*H exhibit before it retires at the end of 2026.
The museum will host “One Last Bash for M*A*S*H” on Saturday, November 28, 2026, from noon to 4 p.m., in conjunction with Small Business Saturday.
Visitors will have the opportunity to explore Ottumwa’s connection to the famous television series M*A*S*H, which featured the fictional character Radar O’Reilly, whose hometown was Ottumwa, Iowa.
The exhibit features vintage M*A*S*H memorabilia, including Radar’s iconic teddy bear displayed in his bunk. Guests can also learn about Iowa’s military heroes who served during the Korean War.
As part of the celebration, the museum will offer 25% off all M*A*S*H merchandise in its gift shop, giving fans an opportunity to purchase souvenirs before the exhibit closes.
Museum officials encourage residents and visitors who have not yet experienced the exhibit to stop by before it is retired at the end of the year.
The Iowa Heartland History Connection is located at 1 Museum Drive in Ottumwa.
For more information, contact the museum at 641-682-8676 or visit ioaheartland.org.
