Because of you, the Grand Ballroom is finished.
The second floor is restored, and it now fills with music, poetry and celebrations. Thank you to everyone who made it possible. Here is what we’re working on next.
Help us build what's next.
From a workshop studio to world-class exhibitions, your gift shapes the museum’s next chapter.
Scholarship Fund
Art really can be for everyone. Scholarships open WMOCA’s classes and workshops to people who couldn’t otherwise take part. Our scholarships cover class fees so our educators are always fairly compensated.
Workshop and Studio
A dedicated space where classes, visiting artists and hands-on learning can happen all year. Your gift helps us build a home for making art, right alongside the galleries.
North Wing Renovation
New room for the museum to grow. From bridal get-ready rooms to artist-in-residence lodging, our north wing has unlimited potential just waiting to be developed.
Restoring Our Historic Exterior
WMOCA lives in a building that has stood since 1901 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Your gift helps us care for its stonework and columns, so it welcomes the community for another century.
World-Class Exhibitions
Some of the world’s most celebrated artists have shown at WMOCA, from Alyssa Monks to Bo Bartlett. Your gift helps us bring more internationally acclaimed work to northern Wisconsin.
