Lighting of the Whale

Another holiday tradition has been established.  On Black Friday, the Milwaukee Public Museum flips the switch on more than 4,200 lights that decorate a 36 foot long humpback whale skeleton.

The skeleton is a permanent display that hangs from the ceiling over the museum’s grand staircase.
