EXPLORE: Featured Items from the MPM Collections

MPM President & CEO Dr. Ellen Censky with Research Curator Dr. Chris Tyrell and Registrar Sara Podejko help you discover items not normally on display!

View items from across the Milwaukee Public Museum's collections, each themed to a different part of the world (Wisconsin, Americas, Europe & Africa, and Pacific & Arctic). Each featured item is highly valued due to its rarity, age, cultural significance, and/or research importance.

Chris and Sara introduce each theme, then discuss how the featured items were selected and how MPM determines the items that are/aren't on exhibit. This is a truly special, one-of-a-kind virtual event!
