UW-Madison alumni and their families are invited to join the Fox Valley Chapter of the Wisconsin Alumni Association for an advance screening of Bucky!
Produced by PBS Wisconsin, Bucky! chronicles the history and impact of the state’s most iconic mascot. At this event, attendees will get to see an unreleased version of the film ahead of its national premiere on December 2!
Narrated by comedian and UW alum Charlie Berens, the program whimsically explores the history of Bucky Badger, his cultural impact on Wisconsin and his rise to something larger than just a mascot. His story is told through interviews by those who donned the Bucky costume, the families of his creators and incredible footage from the past that has not been seen publicly in decades – if ever.
Following the screening, make sure to stick around for some Babcock ice cream during the Q&A session featuring the film’s producer, Jon Miskowski.
Please note, due to limited capacity, advanced registration is required.
