Museum & Community Center

Kewaskum Remembers 9/11, Inc. has formally unveiled plans to build a Museum and Community Center addition to the Wisconsin 9/11 Memorial & Education Center. The new facility will replace the former Kewaskum Municipal Annex building and serve as an indoor learning space, museum, and community gathering area. The project has received unanimous conceptual support from the Kewaskum Village Board and is being designed in partnership with the award-winning Wisconsin-based firm American Architectural Group.
In 2024 alone, the Memorial welcomed thousands of visitors from across the state and country, including more than 850 students from eight Wisconsin counties. It has also become a landmark that draws travelers from across the Midwest, with guests from as far away as Florida, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. Construction is expected to begin once fundraising milestones are met. More information about the project, including renderings, ways to give, and project updates, will be available soon at wisconsin911memorial.com.

This is truly a community-driven project. Our goal is to honor those we lost, educate future generations, and create a space that serves Kewaskum for years to come.
