Spice Up the Holidays at the Madeline Island Museum

La Pointe, Wis. – Visit the Madeline Island Museum on Saturday, November 24 from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM for the Madeline Island Holiday Boutique!

“This annual event is one of my favorites,” said Keldi Merton, site director at the Madeline Island Museum.  “Our very own community members create an array of items, they set up at the museum and offer their work for sale.”

The event features local and regional arts and crafts and a soup lunch to benefit the island school parent/teacher association. Receive one free return PASSENGER ticket to the mainland with the purchase of any item during this special event.  

Free return PASSENGER tickets are available ONLY at the Madeline Island Museum and for use the day of the Holiday Boutique.

Following the Boutique, the Annual Tree Lighting and Sing-A-Long will take place at the pergola on the ferry dock on Madeline Island from 4:00 PM to 4:20 PM. Please join us for this festive event! 

Admission to the Boutique is free and open to the public! For more information, visitwww.madelineislandmuseum.org or call 715-747-2415.
