WHO WE ARE - THE PEOPLE ADVANCING OUR MISSION

Did you know, back on April 16, 1944, button collectors from all over WI gathered in Milwaukee to officially form the Wisconsin State Button Society? (WSBS) Today, we continue their mission –

  • to study and improve the hobby of collecting, classifying and displaying buttons for pleasure and educational purposes;
  • to hold meetings for instruction and entertainment for its members,
  • to bring before the public the art, beauty and history in buttons, and
  • to cooperate with the National Button Society and other Societies to further develop interest and knowledge in buttons.

Meet the current, volunteer Board members leading our mission to advance the hobby of button collecting in Wisconsin:
