Planning public programs to highlight diversity in the population of Chippewa Valley, Wisconsin.

“Adding Chippewa Valley Voices” works to better understand and communicate the diversity of people and experiences in Wisconsin’s Chippewa Valley. A variety of public programs will showcase this diversity. These programs offer students of all ages different levels of engagement depending upon their needs and interests. The project builds upon the museum’s experiences with historically under-represented groups and seeks to build a stronger, more representative museum. It also preserves critical humanities-based positions.
