History walks in Madison

Tonight’s Art Jam will host the inaugural visits of our Bicentennial historical characters, who will be in costume and in character, joining the rest of the Art Jam crowd this evening from 5-9pm.  Visit with Irene Dunne, Charlotte Sullivan, Jenny Lind, Sarah Bolton and Michael Garber as you stroll Madison’s sidewalks.

Also making appearances are Lt. Col. Alois Bachman, Harriet McGlasson, Lillian Williams, Lydia Middleton, Patsy Harris, Elizabet & Sadie Rose, John Brough, Walter Krueger, Delia Webster, William Hendricks, and the First nursing director at the State Hospital.

Get a bite to eat at a downtown eatery, or stop in one of the many open retails establishments serving free refreshments.  The Madison Main Street Program office at 132 E. Main will be serving refreshments and will be open for questions, browsing the resource library, and purchasing Bicentennial merchandise.

And of course, there are the talented musicians and artists who will be performing and showing their work throughout Madison’s commercial district–in restaurants and bars, galleries, stores and on the sidewalks.  Join the Jam!
