The Manitowoc County Historical Society is bringing the Heritage Makers Market to the county later this month.
To bring the event to life, the museum received a grant from Travel Wisconsin and Wisconsin Humanities.
Regional Tourism Specialist from Travel Wisconsin, David Spiegelberg, will be at Pinecrest Village in Manitowoc this today (June 16th) at 1:00 p.m. to award a ceremonial check to the museum.

Casey Penn will also take the stage on Saturday from 1 to 3 for an afternoon of Bluegrass tunes.
Food and beverages will be available from Brian’s Smokehouse in Manitowoc.
