Our Friends are those who support Old World Wisconsin through our Foundation. To recognize the tremendous impact our Friends have on Old World Wisconsin, we host an annual "Friends Appreciation Day." On this day, we celebrate our Friends and offer a short morning program with food and beverages. This year, we will be celebrating the generosity of our Friends on July 19. If you have made a donation through our foundation in the past year, you are welcome to attend, but we must receive your reservation no later than July 11. Please send an email to friends@friendsoww.org or call our office at 262-594-2922. For more information on our Friends Partner Program, visit our Friends Partner page.

This year, Sunset Soiree will be held on August 23. We are excited to be raising money to support STEM-based, hands-on programs at Old World Wisconsin. Sunset Soiree... an enchanted evening celebrating how hands-on learning ignites curiosity at Old World Wisconsin.
