On the 10 year anniversary of our very 1st Diorama-Rama, we'll be revisiting the iconic dioramas of our beloved Milwaukee Public Museum!
The MPM is having a big year—the last in their current location. What better way to honor their tremendous legacy than by putting your own spin on the historic and creative dioramas that line their hallowed halls?
Which one is your favorite? Any dioramas past and present are up for interpretation!
Event Details:
National Diorama Month was founded by Danelle "D" Kirschling to bring attention to this rare and precious resource: dioramas. Each and every year we gather in March to build and celebrate the magical wonder of diorama!
A diorama is a way to craft an exciting scene in a small space. They often display a historical time period, a nature scene, or a fictional situation, and allow a lot of room for creativity and innovation.
Whether your diorama is a school project, a base for a model, or just for fun, building one is easy! This year's event welcomes all to view the completed dioramas, with adult dioramists creating the displays.
This year, National Diorama Month has chosen Walker's Point Center for the Arts as our charity partner! Help us raise funds to support the Arts in Milwaukee.
Follow National Diorama Month on Facebook for updates on the exciting and enchanting world of dioramas!
