Not "To Be" Missed!

Print | Email
There is no question -- you don't want to miss "To Be! Shakespeare Here and Now" at the Koller Library, 2pm on May 22.

The show is a one-person interactive presentation, featuring actor Ron Fry as William Shakespeare.  Dynamic interpretations of excerpts from some of Shakespeare’s most famous works are combined with a humorous look at life in Renaissance England.  The program also includes plenty of opportunities for audience members to star alongside The Bard of Avon.

Registration is not required to attend this free program, which is made possible by a grant from the Wisconsin Humanities Council and the Friends of the Library Association.  For more information, contact the Koller Library at 715-543-2700.

Northwoods Resort Era

Print | Email
A Local History Project of the Frank B. Koller Memorial Library

The library is looking for more written information about past and present resorts of this area. We get many summer tourists in the library asking for this type of information and we do not have much to offer. As a result, we are asking you if you have a story to tell about the resort you vacationed at, owned, or knew about, in the town of Manitowish Waters. Just fill out the attached form (you may send more information beyond what the form asks), and send it back to the library. Pictures are also needed if you have any to share.  
Thank you for your help, and if you have any questions please call the library at 715-543-2700.
