The newest exhibit at the Neenah Historical Society is opening on Monday, April 7th! "Growing Up Neenah: An All-American Childhood" takes a unique look at what makes the childhood experience of growing up in Neenah special. Childhood is not simply a biological stage of life. It is the timeless, original adventure in which we all embark on. While the concept of childhood has changed over time, the experiences of those lucky enough to have grown up in Neenah have largely stayed the same. The Growing Up Neenah: An All-American Childhood exhibit will launch in April 2025 and run through November 2026.
Unique to our city is the Rocket Slide at Riverside Park, Brigade and Camp Onaway, the Santa Float, the Neenah Pool, Parks and Recreation programs, fishing in waterways and so on. Growing Up Neenah means indeed having, an All-American Childhood. The exhibit will feature unique stories from our History Harvest outreach.
The History Harvest was born out of the idea to capture the everyday stories of Neenah residents. This project has allowed us to broaden our archives and knowledge of the history of Neenah. Through a combination of online form responses, handwritten memories, and oral histories we have collected over 30 (and counting) new perspectives from individuals born and raised in Neenah.
