Are you crazy about toy cars? Do you have dozens of dolls? Are you passionate about pens?
The Rassbach Museum is planning our fourth annual Collector’s Day — a celebration of collectors and their collections! The event is an opportunity for you to share your collection (and your knowledge and enthusiasm) with the community and perhaps inspire others to join in collecting.
Museums are organized around collections — ours includes items that help tell the story of Dunn County and its role in the state of Wisconsin. What do you collect, and what does the activity mean to you? All ages are invited to participate. Previous collectors have ranged in age from 4-94.
Collections take years to grow-even if you are just starting to collect we would be delighted to have you share your collection. Collections do not need to be large or a highly collectable item, we welcome starting collectors and their collections.
Collectors Day will be held September 27 from 1 to 4 p.m at the Rassbach Museum. To register as an exhibitor, please complete the form available at the museum, or on our website at www.dunnhistory.org/collectors-day
Applications are due by September 6. Drop off the completed form at 1820 John Russell Road in Menomonie’s Wakanda Park (11 a.m. – 5 p.m., Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and 2 – 8 p.m. Thursday ) or mail to DCHS, PO BOX 437, Menomonie, WI 54751, ATTN Sofi.
Call Sofi Doane at 715-232-8685 with any questions. We hope to hear from you soon!
