100 years ago, WWI Ended. How We Got Involved.

Join us as we learn how the Wilson Administration commissioned artists to produce propaganda posters that would "sell" the war to the American public. Bob Frenz from the McHenry County Museum will share some of his original WWI posters to tell the story of the "Art of War". Also featured will be Ron Vaughan playing WWI era music. The music during this time was very much influenced by the public mood and current events. Sample a WWI cake and see our WWI artifacts. Learn about our own U.S. Army Signal Corps Telephone Operator, Yvonne Haas. $5 suggested donation.
