A coalition of Fox Cities museums announced a collaborative plan to reopen their doors, welcome visitors back, and help keep guests healthy and well.
Art, science, and history museums in the Fox Cities inspire, connect, and teach visitors through their award-winning exhibits, interactive activities, and engaging tours.

At-Home Museum Experiences
These museums continue to offer virtual programming, at-home activities, and engaging web content as a way to connect, teach, and inspire you as visitors and guests about art, science, and history, even outside of the museum walls. BFK Children's Museum has daily virtual kids programming, and the Bergstrom Mahler Museum of Glass has their current exhibit (Form and Feeling - Expressions of Humanity) available on their website for viewing.
