The newest exhibit at the Marathon County Historical Society “The 1920s: Rebellion Prosperity and Loss” is now open on the second-floor exhibit space of the Woodson History Center.

This exhibit captures the excitement around new forms of media like the radio and moving pictures the realities of enforcing a national Prohibition of alcohol the growth of electrified appliances to modernize life at work and in the home and much more.
