About the Project

The Wisconsin Arts Projects of the WPA digital collection provides access to primary sources documenting the activities and output of WPA arts projects in Wisconsin, especially the work of the Milwaukee Handicrafts Project.

The materials reproduced in this digital collection include selections from related archival collections. Researchers should not assume a one-to-one correspondence between digital folders and their counterparts in physical collections. In particular, only selections related to WPA activities have been digitized and made available here. Please consult the finding aid for additional information about archival collections.
