Join us for our annual fundraising gala! As both our largest fundraiser of the year and our most significant community outreach event, the gala plays a vital role in supporting the museum’s daily operations and continued growth. This year’s event, hosted at Weissgerber’s Golden Mast Inn, will explore the rich history of Okauchee through a special presentation by longtime volunteers and local historians Barb Elwood-Goetsch and Jolayne Lindberg. All of this will take place against the backdrop of the museum’s centennial year, as we continue celebrating 100 years of preserving and sharing the stories of the Oconomowoc area. A special selection of artifacts will be on display during the evening, showcasing our century of collecting as well as the history of Okauchee.
This event is brought to you in part by our Major Sponsor, Bank Five Nine. Further support is provided by our Speaker Sponsor, Ed Jones Post 91 American Legion.
