Docomomo US/Wisconsin is the 19th regional chapter of Docomomo US.  The Wisconsin chapter promotes awareness, appreciation and protection of Modern architecture and design across the state of Wisconsin through documentation, engagement, and advocacy efforts. Our mission focuses on Modern buildings, structures, cultural sites, and allied public arts realized during the 20th Century. We celebrate creators, clients, companies and cultural organizations from all of Wisconsin’s diverse communities: urban, rural, and in-between.

Documentation

Docomomo US/Wisconsin is creating the Modern Wisconsin Registry, a catalog of buildings, landscapes, sites, and allied arts of the Modern movement. We encourage anyone interested in helping to launch this initiative to contact us at docomomowi@gmail.com. Once the Modern Wisconsin Registry is set up, there will be a separate process for submitting new sites to the catalog.

Engagement

Docomomo US/Wisconsin organizes educational programming, including lectures, exhibitions, tours and other events, to engage its members and the public in the study and preservation of the Modern built environment. To do so, they collaborate with other educational, preservation, and design organizations across the state.

Advocacy

Docomomo US/Wisconsin advocates for the Modern buildings, landscapes, sites, and allied arts in Wisconsin. We promote sustainability by advocating for the reuse and preservation of existing Modern buildings.
