Author : Audrey Update:May 13,2025

Week 2 of the Blast from the Past event in *The Sims 4* is in full swing, sending players on a thrilling journey to unravel a captivating mystery. Amidst the excitement, a seemingly simple task is proving to be a roadblock for many: studying a Historical Display. Here's a detailed guide on how to tackle this challenge in *The Sims 4*.

Where to Find a Historical Display in The Sims 4 Blast From the Past Event

A museum in The Sims 4 as part of an article about how to study a Historical Display.One of the quests in Blast from the Past Week 2 requires you to study a Historical Display at a museum. If you're a seasoned *The Sims 4* player, you're likely familiar with the local museum. However, for newcomers, it's essential to open the map and look for a building marked with an icon featuring pillars. There are four default museums, but the most convenient ones to visit are Municipal Muses in Willow Creek and The Future's Past in Oasis Springs, as they are strategically located near other tasks in the Blast from the Past event.

How to Study a Historical Display in The Sims 4 Blast From the Past Event

Upon arriving at a museum, it's time to step inside and begin your study session. In *The Sims 4*, both paintings and sculptures qualify as Historical Displays. Choose the one that piques your interest and click on it. You'll be prompted to "View" the Historical Display, and the Emit icon will confirm that you're on the right track to completing the challenge.

Despite the straightforward nature of the quest, numerous players are encountering difficulties. Mods are reportedly interfering with the "View" button, preventing players from studying the Historical Display. Some have resorted to removing all mods to progress through the event, yet the problem persists. It's hoped that EA is actively addressing this issue, but until a fix is released, the best strategy is to attempt to study as many items as possible across multiple museums.
