This exhibit is made possible in part by funding from CESA 2, through a discretionary grant from the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction; the Dane County Cultural Affairs Commission with additional funds from the Overture Foundation and the Pleasant T. Rowland Foundation; VSA arts, under an award from the U.S. Department of Education; Wausau Insurance Companies; and Xcel Energy Foundation.
