Outreach Program

For situations when it would be more convenient for the Museum to come to you, as opposed to taking a field trip to the Wisconsin Museum of Quilts & Fiber Arts, we offer the Outreach Program. Contact us for more information and to set up a visit.

Volunteer Opportunities

We are also looking to build our team of volunteers who want to work with children.  People who love children, fiber arts and history are welcome to contact us!
