O’Brien documented parades and festivities from the 1920s – 100 years ago! The films have been converted to digital form by Society member Bill Schley. They have been analyzed\, enhanced\, and slowed down to present to the public. O’Brien photographed the last living Civil War veterans at Cutler Park\, and they are shown in this movie. \nIf time permits\, we will be able to watch other Waukesha movies – some taken by Norman Schley in the 1950s\, a Waukesha Beach film\, and movies from the 1959 125th Celebration. \nYou can purchase tickets three ways: 1) Call the museum at (262) 521-2859\, 2) purchase tickets from greeter during museum open hours\, or 3) buy tickets online
