Sesquicentennial | Menasha Historical

150 Sesquicentennial Celebration

Memorial Building

Visit at the Memorial Building on Mondays from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

We are rotating the items on display. Newly donated items are also being featured. Check out this display from Keaton Zehner!

Octagon Exhibit

The Menasha Historical Society partnered with the Neenah Historical Society for the exhibit at the Octagon House entitled "Neenah and Menasha Sesquicentennials - Two Cities, One Community." Many of our volunteers spent countless hours selecting and preparing artifacts and information for the displays. You can find out more information on the history of our two communities, major businesses and industries, important people and other interesting facts!

Great Button Hunt

Menasha businesses, nonprofits, and other organizations will be making buttons to distribute during our sesquicentennial year (2024). Watch for events during the year with names to find your button.

You can also pick up a custom Menasha lanyard at City Hall (Park & Recreation department on the 2nd floor) for $1.50 each. Lanyards are also available at the Library, Club Liquor, Press Start Games (Oneida Street), Sweet Lair, and Elysa Kate & Co. Start your collection today!

We are part of two buttons. Visit us at the Memorial Building to receive your FREE Menasha Historical Society button. Also, you can visit the display at the Octagon House and receive a button from Neenah Historical Society and Menasha Historical Society.
