We have added a new “Focus on Communities” element to our webpage “Neighbors Past and Present: The Wisconsin German Experience.” This page features German-American history, traditions, culture, resources, and much more, in communities where our traveling exhibit has been displayed. Local collaborators have augmented the exhibit with special programming, displays, resource materials, and features on their website, some of which we can now share with the rest of the world.
Our first featured community is OSHKOSH in Winnebago County, Wisconsin. Click below and learn more about the city’s German immigrants, newspapers, traditions, and notable individuals.
