Oshkosh Rocks - Paine Art Center and Gardens
The Paine Art Center and Gardens is an awesome place to visit!
Paine Center
The Paine Art Center and Gardens is a historic estate with a mansion and gardens located in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. It includes public art galleries and botanic gardens on 3 acres, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
History
The Paine Mansion was built for lumber baron Nathan Paine and his wife, Jessie Kimberly Paine. In 1925, upon the recommendation of Mary K. Shirk (Jessie's sister), the Paines commissioned Bryant Fleming, an architect from Ithaca, New York to design the estate. Construction of the Tudor Revival style mansion began in 1927 and the exterior was completed in 1930. All work was halted in 1932 as the Great Depression crippled the Paine Lumber Company.
The mansion was originally built as a home for the Paines but workers of the lumber company threatened to bomb the building should they move in. The Paines returned to the project in 1946 and established a non-profit organization to own and manage the estate for public benefit. Nathan Paine died in 1947 at the age of 77. Jessie oversaw remaining work on the estate, and the property opened to the public in 1948. Until Jessie’s death in 1973 at the age of 100, she served as the museum’s president while residing in La Jolla, California.
The Paines never lived in the house.
Features
The Paine estate features a historic house museum with art gallery, and is surrounded by extensive gardens.
The house contains French Barbizon school and American paintings, sculptures, and decorative woodworkings, Persian rugs, tapestries, and English and American silver and china. The Paine Center hosts changing exhibitions and offers educational programs related to historic architecture, art, and to nature.
The estate's landscape gardens have twenty 'outdoor rooms' and designed areas, in various historical—traditional and contemporary themes. They feature thousands of different plant species, serving as a botanical garden.
The Paine Art Center and Gardens are at 1410 Algoma Boulevard in Oshkosh. It is open Tuesday-Sunday throughout the year, and an admission fee is charged.

This Is Our Town - Oshkosh in the 1950s
In 1953 a consortium of businesses produced a professionally made film titled This is Our Town, detailing life in the city. This black and white film provides a fabulous chance to see inside many Oshkosh businesses, factories, and banks as well as sites from all over town. Along with a look behind the scenes of over two dozen different businesses, you will get a glimpse of places like the Athearn Hotel, Dunphy Boat, and Chief Oshkosh Brewing Company.
The 1950s were a time of great enthusiasm and optimism in the United States. In Oshkosh, citizens and businesses were looking with tremendous pride to the past while keeping a high level of confidence about the future. As part of this forward-thinking optimism, a consortium of businesses called Associated Industries of Oshkosh produced a four-hour, professionally made film of life in the city titled This is Our Town.
This two hour version of that 1953 black and white film is sure to bring back pleasant memories for many people and help viewers understand the transformation of the city over the decades.
The archives of the Oshkosh Public Museum holds the only known footage of this great film. We hope you enjoy this look at Oshkosh in the 1950s.

74 shootings at school in the last 18 months
*note: some gun proponents claim most of these are not legitimate school shootings because they weren't the Sandy Hook-type shooting.
Call it what you want. It doesn't matter if they are school shooting sprees, terrorism, revenge or gang-related... they are shootings which took place at school. The result is the same... dead and injured children.
