The preservation of history is the responsibility of every generation, every enterprise. We learn from history — we recreate the aura and feelings, good and bad, of our foundations , and we build our future with it. The Wisconsin Museum of Broadcasting hopes to be this kind of repository for all who visit us. Broadcasting has become a world institution in little more than a century. In Wisconsin, broadcasting is woven into the fabric of every community in the state.

The Wisconsin Museum of Broadcasting hopes to present those stories and more, for all to enjoy.
