Blue Heron Antiques
A Legacy of Curating Timeless Treasures
In 2005, after a distinguished 38-year career teaching biology at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln, Jim Rosowski, embarked on a new journey. Driven by a passion for history and preservation, he purchased a historic building in Seward, Nebraska. After a meticulous renovation, Blue Heron Antiques proudly opened its doors in 2007.
