Miners Ball
Please join in on the Miner's Ball, a formal evening fundraising event for The Mining & Rollo Jamison Museums on February 17th from 5-10pm. The Friends of the Mining & Rollo Jamison Museums are pleased to carry on the tradition of this classic Platteville dance celebration started by engineering students in the 1930s. This formal event for couples of all ages invites everyone passionate about the history of Platteville to dress up, to enjoy a great dinner, and to swing to the music of a Big Band orchestra— just like generations of young engineers in training did starting back in 1926. Please contact the museum at (608) 348-3301 or museums@platteville.org if you have any dietary restrictions.
