"My History is Milwaukee’s History"
(Raynor, Level 3)
February 2- May 15, 2009

This traveling exhibit is based upon Dr. James Marten's (Chair, Department of History) "Children in Urban America" project.  On loan from the Milwaukee County Historical Society, the exhibit explores four aspects of childhood in Milwaukee: Play and Leisure, Health and Welfare, Work, and Life Through Children's Eyes.  The project demonstrates the many ways children experienced city life during the last century and a half and was funded by Marquette University and the National Endowment for the Humanities.
