Cleveland's Learning Center and Money MuseumSeveral Reserves throughout the country have a museum. Cleveland's open, two-level space is decorated in soft shades of green and details the history of money and its role in everyday life. Exhibits are aimed at the fourth- or fifth-grade level but all ages will learn something here. On the first level, the history of commerce begins on Barter Island and before money was created. Another section highlights a Money Timeline. Examples of artistry used on money, plus the life of a bill is shown. Most bills last about two years before being shredded. A small, sample packet is given as a souvenir. Another highlight is the Money Tree, which is right in the middle of it all.
