As the United States approaches the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, PBS Wisconsin and community partners will host a special preview screening of the all-new documentary series THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION.

PBS Wisconsin Education and community partners are proud to announce the unveiling of two “Neighborhood Nooks” in Beloit. Neighborhood Nooks are spaces that invite young families to engage, outfitted with PBS KIDS activities and media that evoke self-exploration and learning.

The newest addition to PBS Wisconsin Education’s Wisconsin Biographies collection, Georgia O’Keeffe: Painting Her Own Path, is available online now.

PBS Wisconsin’s limited digital series Welcome Poets explores the lives, work and legacies of two Wisconsin poets with strong ties to Fort Atkinson. Episodes premiere weekly at pbswisconsin.org/welcomepoets.
