Join us for programming 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on President's Day, February 17 AND our Family Fun Day, February 18!
Activities include:
Watson House
Sully and Susanna Watson took their family from the oppressive conditions of ante-bellum Virginia in 1834 and, after several years in Ohio, arrived in Milwaukee in 1850. Through skilled labor and business entrepreneurship, the couple played a vital role in establishing Milwaukee’s black middle class. This interactive program explores the Watson’s family history through images and objects that illustrate this vibrant era in the city’s black heritage.
