Beloved Wisconsin author, historian and storyteller Jerry Apps has built a fruitful partnership with Wisconsin Public Television (WPT), sharing stories of rural life and lore in four popular films since 2012. Now, Apps returns to WPT for a fifth time to share memories from his time at a one-room school in Waushara county.

Storytellers from each of the 11 sovereign nations located in Wisconsin — and one nation whose sovereign status is no longer recognized by the federal government — share the unique histories of their people and communities in the Wisconsin Public Television (WPT) series of Tribal Histories documentaries.

As the Wisconsin State Capitol marks its centennial, Wisconsin Public Television (WPT) will premiere a new documentary on the history, architecture and cultural significance of the iconic statehouse. Our House: The Wisconsin Capitol premieres on WPT and Milwaukee PBS 7 p.m. Monday, Nov. 27.

Release Date: Tue, Nov 14, 2017
