The exhibit consists of thirty-six matted and framed photographs with accompanying labels, as well as one introductory panel that provides a brief overview of the show and information about the Center. 

The exhibit will be on display at the Senior Center through mid-May.  Stop by and experience this great piece of Madison history. The Senior Center is located at 5510 Lacy Road and is open 8-4:30, Monday through Friday.
