Wisconsin Historical Society celebrates 30 years of Wisconsin's state dance with a polka party
Wisconsin Historical Society, DJ Shotski and DB Polka Express celebrated three decades of Wisconsin’s State Dance at downtown Madison’s History Maker Space during a one-of-a-kind polka party!
The night was memorable for the music, community and appreciation of our state’s history. I played vintage polka records and an all-Wisconsin artist set. DB Polka Express played lively tunes that got the crowd dancing. Randy and Ashley Thull showed off their exceptional talent in a polka dance demonstration.
We shared the news that Governor Evers signed a proclamation that April 21 is Wisconsin Polka Day in honor of the 30th anniversary of our state dance. Wisconsin Historical Society curated a pop-up exhibit of photos of polka history and fueled everyone up with good food and drinks.
Big thanks to the Wisconsin Historical Society for throwing a great party in honor of the anniversary of our state’s dance.
