Free day at the Museum – June 8th – 10 am – 4 pm!!

Join us at the Waukesha County Historical Society and Museum as we celebrate the Wizard of Waukesha’ – Les Paul’s – birthday.

Come to the museum and explore our immersive Les Paul exhibit on the man whose sound changed the world.

From his beginnings in his “Living Room Laboratory” experimenting with his mother’s player piano to his work in perfecting what would become the Gibson solid body electric guitar, the exhibit explores the innovative and tenacious spirit of Les.

Throughout the day the museum staff will be demonstrating our new Les Paulverizer and Log made by Dr. VJ Manzo and his students from the Worcester Polytechnic Institute.
