The Jewish Museum Milwaukee is planning a “Museum on the Move-Cultural Day Trip to Madison” on Tuesday, June 18, 9 a.m.–5 p.m.
The group will depart from the Brown Deer Road Park and Ride (next to Indian Hill School).
Participants will learn about the special collections of the Mayrent Institute for Yiddish Culture, part of the Mosse/Weinstein Center for Jewish Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and hear unique sound examples from the audio archives through a presentation at the Mills Music Library with institute director Henry Sapoznik.
They will also enjoy a kosher lunch on campus and tour the changing and permanent exhibits at the Chazen Museum of Art, including a special behind-the-scenes viewing with Maria Saffiotti Dale, curator of paintings, sculpture, and decorative arts, of select Jewish works from the collection and rarely seen pieces from the museum’s Japanese print collection in its new object study room.
Cost is $55 for museum members, $60 for non-members. The price includes lunch (dietary laws observed) and round trip coach bus transportation.
Spaces are limited. RSVP by Monday, June 10. For more information, contact Molly Dubin, 414-390-5756 or mollyd@milwaukeejewish.org.
