The Historic Blooming Grove Historical Society
maintains the 1856 Nathaniel W. Dean House as a living museum.
Furnishings reflect the life of a gentleman farmer and his family
during the last half of the Nineteenth Century in Wisconsin. Scheduled
events focus on the daily routines and significant occasions of the
family, ranging from wash days to celebrations of the Christmas
season.
The Dean House project is ongoing. The Society
continues to seek period furnishings with ties to historic Blooming
Grove Township and to support the study of the Wisconsin family during
the Victorian Age, developing exhibits and re-enactments to bring it
to life.
Although donations are requested to support the
project, all Dean House events are free to the public.
