Justin Agar-Pratt Shares the Oconomowoc Historical Society Vision
Director Justin Agar-Pratt details the Society's ongoing million-dollar capital campaign.
Justin Agar-Pratt, Director of the Oconomowoc Historical Society, relayed his passion for the museum’s treasures during our last meeting. Those treasures not only include 50,000 objects and 10,000 photographs, but its dedicated board of directors, volunteers, and donors.
The museum's mission to inspire and educate carries through to more than 300 elementary school student visits this spring, a 1966 class reunion held there this summer, and its ongoing million-dollar capital campaign.
A corner bar is joining the school room, winter sports area, dancing through the decades, train depot, bank and dentist offices, the 57-seat theatre area, and renovated lobby.
The museum hopes to improve access, safety, lighting, exterior faces, windows, and display strategies while expanding to include even more exhibits. “We’re so grateful for the generous response to our campaign,” said Agar-Pratt. “And we’re so excited about our future.”
