The Geneva Lake Museum.
This great place, located on Mill Street in downtown Lake Geneva, and has a lot of new and exciting exhibits to show off in the upcoming months. The newest exhibit celebrates Lake Geneva as the birthplace of role playing and imagination gaming. This also recognizes Gary Gygax as the co-creator of Dungeon & Dragons along with the history and birth of that game right here in Lake Geneva. Go visit Jayden Nunn at the new Exhibit. He’s the best tour guide over there ever!
To celebrate this momentous occasion the museum is installing two beautiful stained-glass windows crafted by Gilbertson’s and designed by Jeff Easley the original D & D artist. The windows are LED backlit to offer ambient lighting day or night. The total price for the project is $15,000 and anyone wishing to donate can go online, https://www.genevalakemuseum.org.
The museum is also preparing for the 4th annual Parade of Trees. Set up and decoration starts November 16th, and each business chooses its very own theme. Then, on November 18th, participants and their families are invited to the tree-lighting ceremony before it opens to the public. All guests attending the parade will be given a ballot to vote for a favorite tree. There are only a few spots left so any business interested should visit the museum website and send in a completed form quickly before time runs out.
