WISCONSIN LIGHTHOUSES

Illuminating the power and appeal of these iconic structures, this program explores their history, idyllic settings, unique architecture, and the light they shine on a bygone era. Producer Jeff Pfeiffer takes us behindthe-scenes with stories and clips from the upcoming PBS Wisconsin special. Learn what it takes to put a documentary of this scale together, including physical production, working in remote locations, and creative problem solving. He will also share tales of his favorite Green Bay lighthouses.

Milwaukee PBS producers were honored with four Emmy nominations for; SHAKESPEARE WITH VETERANS, AL CAPONE: PROHIBITION IN WISCONSIN, HOW WE HEAL and THE VIOLENT FEMMES 40TH ANNIVERSARY WITH THE MILWAUKEE SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA.

I’m thrilled to let you know we won an Emmy for The Violent Femmes program from the Midwest/Chicago chapter of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. You, along with the rest of the country will have an opportunity to see this amazing concert with the incredible Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra on Dec. 13 at 8PM and 9:15PM on Channel 10.1.

There’s quite the selection of holiday programs for you this month too. JOY: CHRISTMAS WITH THE TABERNACLE CHOIR, TOO HOT TO HANDEL: THE GOSPEL MESSIAH, MARY BERRY’S ULTIMATE CHRISTMAS, CULTURAL EXPRESSIONS: KWANZAA AND A CLASSIC CHRISTMAS WITH THE BACH FESTIVAL SOCIETY: JOYFUL SOUNDS just to name a few.

December is one of our largest fundraising times, you’ll see many new programs that are designed specifically to encourage those who aren’t supporters yet. If it’s time for you to renew, thank you for doing so.

As we approach the end of the year, we want to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude for your continued support of Milwaukee PBS. Your contributions help us provide a wide variety of educational, cultural, and enriching programs. In this season of giving, we’re reminded of the power of shared stories and experiences, and your generosity which makes so much of what we do possible.

Happy holidays, thank you for being an essential part of our family.

With appreciation,

Debbie Hamlett Vice President and General Manager

On the LOCAL SCENE

Letters to Santa

Enters

its 51st season this year! Expect to be transported to the North Pole Library, where you’ll meet Dewey, the Elf Librarian, and their assistant elf, Paige. Children have been invited to the library for a special annual holiday storytime and to share their letters with Santa. Stories both new and old will be shared with the children and audience at home. This season celebrates the holidays as a whole and the magic that reading stories can bring to everyone. Student producers are working hard to continue the 50 plus year tradition of LETTERS TO SANTA and, most importantly, to create a magical experience for families watching at home.

12/22, at 9 and 9:30AM on 36.1

NEW LOCAL DIGITAL CONTENT

Art is about a lot of things and one of those things is expressing yourself. It can be easy to see how painters and sculptors express themselves in their work but how does a classically trained dancer express themself? This month, we look at the art of dance featuring the Milwaukee Ballet. Learn about how dancers prepare their mind and bodies for their performances and what having a world class dance company means to a community.

Rebuilding Milwaukee’s Trinity Lutheran Church

ForNearly 150 years, Trinity Lutheran Church stood tall… A beacon of faith and history in Milwaukee. On May 15th, 2018, a devastating fire ravaged this historic landmark, threating to erase its legacy. Yet, from the ashes, a community came together and with the expertise of Wisconsin’s finest artists and craftsmen, the church is being brought back to life. Join us on an inspiring journey of restoration and rebirth as history meets hope, and a beloved Milwaukee icon rises again. 12/18, 9PM 10.1

Violent Femmes 40th Anniversary with the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra Wins Regional Emmy!

Tune in Friday, December 13 at 8PM Encore 9:15PM on Channel 10.1

The Milwaukee PBS production of the VIOLENT FEMMES 40TH ANNIVERSARY WITH THE MILWAUKEE SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA received an Emmy at the Regional Midwest/Chicago National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences awards ceremony on November 2, 2024. The program was produced in partnership with the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra.

The program will air nationally on PBS stations across the country on Friday, December 13. This concert is a celebration of the Violent Femmes iconic debut selftitled album and greatest hits including Blister in the Sun, Kiss Off, Add It Up and Gone Daddy Gone

The Violent Femmes are an American folk punk band who began playing acoustic punk on the streets of Milwaukee. They were discovered in 1981 while busking outside the Oriental Theatre where the Pretenders were playing later that evening. The lead singer, Chrissie Hynde invited them to play a brief acoustic set after the opening act.

Gordon Gano, the lead vocalist & guitar player was still in high school when he wrote all of the songs for the Violent Femmes’ first album. Today, the Violent Femmes

DONOR SPOTLIGHT: MEG & LIBBY KASCH

Dynamic Duo Offers Leading Support and Challenges Others To Do The Same

When she was dating her husband, Jeffrey, Meg Kasch’s parents were immediately struck by the fact that they knew his name. It wasn’t because Jeffrey C. Kasch was president of the Mequon-based M.W. Kasch Company, the largest independent toy distributor in the country. “It was because he was a donor to Milwaukee PBS and they saw his name come up on television multiple times as he underwrote several of their favorite programs on Channels 10 and 36,” said Meg. “He had instant credibility.”

Jeffrey passed away in 2011, but in a full circle moment last year Meg and daughter Libby Kasch renewed the Milwaukee PBS support that originally started with Jeffrey. And they have done it again this year. Meg and Libby Kasch are the sponsors behind our Giving Tuesday challenge and a portion of their gift also is underwriting MASTERPIECE broadcasts on Sunday nights.

“We love the content on Milwaukee PBS and Passport,” said Libby. “And we love to know that our Giving Tuesday philanthropy is leveraging other well-deserved support,” said Meg. Last year this mother/daughter team challenged viewers to support Milwaukee PBS on Giving Tuesday and they would match viewer donations dollar for dollar up to $10,000. Viewers vigorously responded by donating $49,084. Their challenge leveraged five times their gift. This year, the challenge is increasing, but also will include a pitch made at the Violent Femmes screening event, which takes place on Giving Tuesday (December 3). “We look forward to seeing how Milwaukee PBS supporters respond,” said Libby. Milwaukee PBS thanks Meg and Libby for this major investment. They are proof positive that good things happen to those who support Milwaukee PBS.

TRAVEL WITH MILWAUKEE PBS

Each year, hundreds of viewers take advantage of domestic and foreign travel programs sponsored and curated by Milwaukee PBS.

This spring, Milwaukee PBS is excited to invite members to experience Italy like never before and meet the artisans from the Emmy Award-winning PBS show, ITALY MADE WITH LOVE. You’ll be taken on a tour of the senses through their craftsmanship centuries in the making.

ITALY MADE WITH LOVE ARTISAN TOUR

May 4 – 10, 2025

“We are excited to be offering you this exclusive Italian experience,” said Patrick Greene, executive producer and director of the show that also inspired the creation of this trip. “I have spoken to each and every artisan on that tour,” he said. “Some of them are not open to the public, but they are opening their doors to Milwaukee PBS.”

The tour kicks off in Rome then moves north to Orvieto, Perugia and Citta di Castello and then moves on to Florence. Along the way travelers will visit with the artisans featured in the television show. From wood sculptors to ceramicists to trufﬂe hunting with local experts, travelers will experience the artisans who will share their knowledge and passion for their region of Italy making each day an enriching and unforgettable adventure.

3 Indoor Activities to Release Kids’ Energy

To help kids get out that energy, here are three ideas for indoor games to get the wiggles out!

Turn on music and dance. Play your favorite songs and move to the beat together. Moving to music is a great way to get energy out and to practice important skills, like self-regulation (find additional music games here). Try “mirror dancing” with your child. Stand face-to-face several feet apart and take turns being the dancer and their reﬂection (try to copy what the dancer does like a reﬂection in a mirror). And make up some new dance moves with Pinkalicious or play freeze dance with Peterrific in this fun game!

Set up obstacle courses. Give your child physical activity challenges to complete: “Can you hop down the hallway on one foot and then tiptoe all the way back?” Use laundry baskets, pillows or other items around your home to create more complex obstacle courses.

Create a scavenger hunt. Make a checklist using simple pictures or words with items your child can find around the house, such as: two red books, four chairs, two tables, one black shoe, one white shoe. Help your child cross off each item as they are found. For older children, create scavenger hunts focused on finding items that are specific shapes or colors, such as two triangles, four circles, three things that are purple. Each of these activity ideas can be modified and enhanced to include your children’s interests. Obstacle courses can become an imaginary adventure under the sea. Follow your child’s lead and get those wiggles out!

Join us in 2025 for new travel adventures!

Discover new places, and delight your senses with exciting foods and experiences. Explore, learn, discover, create new stories, and enjoy new and old friends with Milwaukee PBS. Don't miss out on these unforgettable experiences. Let's make memories together!
