[edit] Exhibits

The museum offers free admission to Milwaukee county residents on Mondays. In fact, I was there yesterday. If I had known about this stub, I would have spent more time there. Perhaps we could start with an outline of the different exhibits, and expand from there? DC 16:20, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

I completed the permanent exhibits list and added quick summaries for each item, so feel free to make my ramblings more coherent and to add to the descriptions. :) It would be nice to get to the point that each bulleted item can be formed in to a proper multi-paragraph description of the exhibit floors.

Did you visit the Saint Peter and the Vatican exhibition? I've been meaning to go. I guess it's discounted to $10.50 for county residents on Mondays, along with the free museum admission. Sulfur 19:45, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

I did visit the St. Peter and the Vatican exhibit. I'm not Catholic (Protestant, if you're curious) but it was very interesting and informative. Very cool to see a lot of historical items of the church, as well as a few items from the most recent conclave. Also some wall hangings which explained the conclave and the process of electing a new pope.

Thank you for putting up the outline! Hopefully soon as I have time I'll start expanding some of these. I'll likely start with the Streets of Old Milwaukee.67.39.52.81 21:28, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

Why does the image work in Internet Explorer but not in Firefox? Is anyone else having this issue?--aviper2k7 03:35, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi Aviper2k7.. it might be Firefox is working on a cached version of the page, from when Wikipedia's server was being flaky. Have you tried clearing the cache, or reloading the page while holding down the crtl key (or is it the shift key?). 72.131.44.247 04:43, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
