The Wisconsin Veterans Museum
The Wisconsin Veterans Museum (WVM) joins more than 200 iconic museums across the nation in presenting a Civic Season program to promote museums as civic hubs for younger generations. WVM’s event, “Slice of History: An Evening of Music, Pizza, and Stories of Wisconsin Veterans,” on Friday, June 21st from 5-7pm, is free and open to the public. The evening features live music sets from U.S. Army veteran singer-songwriter Jesse Tyler Freward, and Madison’s Celtic rock band, The Kissers, who will perform their music inspired by the stories of Wisconsin veterans.
“Slice of History” will treat attendees to free pizza and after-hours access to the Wisconsin Veterans Museum new exhibit, Traditions: Stories of Service to Country & Community, which tells the stories of veterans’ service in uniform and afterward and their contributions to our nation and state.
Civic Season is the flagship program of Made By Us, a network of hundreds of museums, historic sites, libraries and archives which promotes access to history for younger generations.
