Thursday — Museums are Community

We literally couldn't do what we do without our community. 🤝

As the only graduate Museum Studies program in the Iowa-Illinois bi-state region, WIU is built on partnerships with the Family Museum, Figge Art Museum, Bix Museum, Putnam Museum, German American Heritage Center, and the Iowa Museum Association - in addition to all the museums on the QC Illinois side!

Today we're tagging the partners who make it all possible, because great work grows when we share it.

Putnam Museum German American Heritage Center & Museum Butterworth Center & Deere-Wiman House Quad City Botanical Center
