Connecting our communities
Our Hometown History Expo connects museum visitors with their local small museums, town historians, historical societies, and genealogy groups. Included in general museum admission, come out for a day of exciting local learning and participation in local history! Let’s raise awareness for the plethora of fantastic small museums and historical societies we are so lucky to have in the Manitowoc County community!
Reconnect with hometown history!
On this special day we’ll be inviting local museums, historical societies, genealogy groups, and town historians, to be on-site and host a table. Our visitors will learn about the wide breadth of local historical organizations and find new community connections.

St. Nazianz Area Historical Society
