Grants In Action

Racine Heritage Museum - "Spirit of Innovation"

The Racine Heritage Museum was awarded a grant that was used in the development of a new exhibit. The exhibit, Spirit of Innovation, opened in May of 2009. The exhibit addresses the central theme of the Museum’s mission: Racine County’s diverse people, their ideas, products, and impact on the world. The exhibit serves as to showcase Racine County’s proud, innovative, manufacturing history. Another element to this exhibit includes a comprehensive educational program that takes full advantage of the exhibit as an educational framework for students, as young inventors and entrepreneurs.
