Capitalizing on Good Times & Getaways

Posted on February 06, 2019
During a recent day trip to Milwaukee, I would’ve loved to pack along a portable Woodson Art Museum visit. Instead, I pulled a cell phone from my pocket and searched TripAdvisor for things to do. Here are highlights from recent Woodson Art Museum visitors' comments, including what they're saying about Victor Vasarely: Op Art Master, on view through February 24.

Art Cluster Students Explore Op Art

Posted on January 09, 2019
The Wausau School District’s Art Cluster Program provides a multi-day art enrichment experience for fourth and fifth-grade students with a keen interest in the visual arts. The students begin the program with a visit to the Woodson Art Museum where volunteer docents offer a guided visit through the galleries and educators introduce students to a hands-on art project inspired by artwork on view. This year’s 160 Art Cluster students experienced Victor Vasarely: Op Art Master.

Bear’s initial, grumpy response was softened by Mouse’s offer of friendship . . . and snacks.
