GENEVA LAKE MUSEUM
Lake Geneva, WI
Website | Phone: (262) 248-6060
The Geneva Lake Museum collects and maintains an archive of Geneva Lake area historical information for public use.
Mission:
" Preserving the Past for the Future" - Geneva Lake Museum discovers and preserves the rich history throughout Geneva Lake and the surrounding communities. The Museum strives to provide a fascinating, inviting and thought-provoking visit where our guests can enjoy our experiences and exhibits. We strive to capture the history of the Geneva Lakes Area over many decades to the present. The exhibits within the walls are time capsules that capture the essence of Geneva Lake and its people.
Community Resources:
Geneva Lake Museum takes pride in making sure we deliver content that enriches the lives of visitors. Our "Tuesdays at Two" programming offers different historical topics each month. These topics include things such as discussion of different lakefront estates, the history of the local native Indian populations, agriculture in the area and flora and fauna found throughout the lakes region. We generally fill the 100 spot threshold and many local community members whether they are or are not museum members are regulars in attendance along with new visitors. These sessions provide another way of delivering interesting historical content to the community.
Most Urgent Needs:
We have had water damage in our Military room. We are planning to completely remodel and renovate this space to better "Honor our Local Heroes". This will entail replacing the carpet, the ceiling tiles and the light fixtures as well as painting the space and get new display cases.
