Where I Live
Minnetrista, a museum and cultural center, was built on the site of the Ball home in 1988.
These columns were moved from the Frank C. Ball home that burned in 1967. Minnetrista was the name of the home of the Ball family. The word means "a gathering place by the water." This is the family who founded the company that made Ball canning jars.
"The water" in the word Minnetrista is the White River.
