All eyes on Viroqua Center: Project interesting to communities with similar needs. (Vernon County Broadcaster, 1/11/2012)
Excerpt: The collaborative nature of the Viroqua Library Task Force's Viroqua Center is drawing statewide attention.
The task force held two meetings, Friday, to recap the research gained to date and review the current schematic plan for the facility.
The Viroqua Center is an ongoing collaboration between the McIntosh Memorial Library, Western Technical College and other possible community partners. Through the partnership a new library would be created along with space for a business and training facility that would have space for arts and theatre. The entire project would be linked together through common spaces and include striking architecture designed by PSA Dewberry. The cost estimate for the project is between $5 million-$8 million. The project has so far received two grants from the state of Wisconsin totaling $522,500.
Viroqua's McIntosh Memorial Library is a member of the Winding Rivers Library System.
